Abstract
Numerical simulation was used to investigate the extinction cross-section and bulk refractive index sensitivity of size-distributed gold and silver nanoparticles. Spherical and cube-shaped particles have also been studied. The results confirmed that the optical properties and bulk refractive index sensitivity of these nanoparticles are significantly influenced by their size distribution. If the particles are more uniform, this results in higher sensitivity.
