In (a), it is illustrated the SE measurement and SEM image in the inset were the parameters of Eq. 1 were taken for a representative case of 46 mg of Ga on the medium Al pit diameter template; ∆λ, d and D are indicated. (b) LSPR normalized shift (Δλ/λ0) as a function of the normalized interparticle distance (d/D) for the set of Ga masses evaporated on the three different Al templates. The fit of the data from the medium Al template (red circles) according to the Eq. 1 is also plotted with the obtained decay rate (τ). The inset of (b) shows the same plot but for the DDA calculations of Fig. 5(b) together with the fit.
