    Abstract

    The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties of Au/Ag/graphene nanoshells are studied by discrete dipole approximation (DDA). The coupled resonance wavelengths show a remarkable dependence on the graphene thickness as well as refractive index of the surrounding medium. The resonance wavelengths of Au/Ag/graphene nanoshells red-shift as the thickness of the graphene layer is increased, when the radii of the Au core and Ag interlayer are 40nm and 45nm, respectively. Specifically, the longer wavelength red-shifts from 540nm to 740nm when the refractive index varies from 1.25 to 2.05.
