We report on the synthesis and optical spectra of silver nanorice particles. Two strong absorption bands are resolved in the near UV and near-IR region, and the dark field scattering spectra are consistent with the absorption spectra. Finite-difference time-domain simulations reveal that the peak in the IR region can be attributed to the E field that is parallel to the long axis, while the peak in...
