Abstract

The paper studies the optical properties of assemblies of metallic prolate and oblate nanospheroids. The frequency dependences of averaged absorption and scattering cross-sections, absorption, scattering and reflection coefficients are obtained. The calculations were performed for assemblies of spheroidal particles of various metals. The difference in the results of calculating the frequency characteristics of the absorption and scattering cross-sections for assemblies of prolate and oblate spheroids manifested itself in different location and value of the maxima. A qualitative similarity of the frequency dependences of the absorption and scattering coefficients was established. It is shown that the frequency curves of assemblies of spheroids of different metals differ significantly in the location of the extrema within the range from the visible to the ultraviolet region of the spectrum.
