23. Optimized FEM calculations were performed for Au nanoprisms 18 nm in height with 59 nm base length and 70 nm bisector length (7.4× 104 dipoles per pair) using effective medium theory and experimentally determined complex dielectric functions.

25. Au nanoprism arrays were fabricated by electron beam patterning of poly(methyl methacrylate) using a JEOL JBX-9300FS 100 kV EBL system followed by development in 3:1 isopropyl alcohol:methyl isobutyl ketone and electron beam deposition (CVC, Inc.). SEM (Zeiss Ultra 60 FE-SEM) and AFM (Digital Instruments, Dimension 3000) found the nanoprisms to be 19±1 nm in height with 59±4 nm base length and 70±5 nm bisector length.
