Abstract

Evidence is presented showing that the radiative decay of localized surface-plasmon modes from metal particulates on aluminum-alumina-gold tunnel junctions is due to these modes being driven off resonance by the fields of the gold electrode. The metal particulates are formed on top of an insulating spacer set above the gold electrode by deposition of a silver-island film.
