Abstract

In this paper, we present an analysis and modeling of the interaction of electromagnetic fields with metallic nanostructures using computational tools that allow us to study the phenomena that are produced as an electromagnetic field interacts with the nanostructure. The analysis of dielectric systems including metals can be very complicated because of the metal parameters. For this reason, we propose to integrate the dielectric function of the Lorentz-Drude model with the finite difference time-domain (FDTD) method, which will permit to study the surface and internal effects within the metal nanostructure system added to the dielectric system, and the interaction of electromagnetic fields with atoms, ions or molecules excited up to their resonant frequency, which causes transitions among atomic energy levels. We solved the system and showed the results of the simulation for the following case studies, silver nanosphere of 100nm in diameter, gold nanorod of 12nm in thickness and 30nm in length and gold nanogroove of 70nm.
