The influence of the ratio of the Au nanorings and the energy of electron beam on CL. The thickness of the Au nanoring h = 50 nm, the electron beam is incident at the position of (r + R)/2 and the energy of electron beam is 30 keV for (a–c). (a) Calculated CL spectra for nanorings with a constant width of 50 nm and different inside radii r. (b) Calculated CL spectra for nanorings with a constant effective radius of (r + R)/2 = 120 nm and different width w. (c) The relationship between the ratio parameter w/[(r + R)/2] and the resonant wavelength, which is extracted from (a) and (b). (d) The influence of the energy of electron beam for an r = 80 nm, w = 80 nm nanoring cavity.
