24. 26 Both of these errors vanish with infinitesimal grid resolutions. Differences between FDTD and plasmon hybridization are consistent in magnitude and direction with differences between FDTD and classical Mie theory. Calculations with a finer grid for selected distances reveals almost perfect agreement between the FDTD and the plasmon hybridization method.
