Much less exploited than the spectral and spatial properties of surface plasmons (SPs) are their local density of states (SP-LDOS), which rule a number of important nanoscale phenomena. Using two-photon luminescence microscopy, the SP-LDOS in ultrathin gold nanoprisms is now visualized directly, allowing for the SP modal distribution to be tuned.
