Abstract
This chapter describes the operation points, i.e., the necessary parameters to excite the surface plasmon for active metal-type compounds (ITO and TiN). Aspects like incident angle range, wavelength range, metal thickness, optical substrate, nanoparticle size, dynamic range, responsivity, SPR depth, intensity and line broadening are present.
