  1. We utilize a combined computational-experimental approach to examine the influence of indium nanoparticle (NP) array distributions on deep-ultraviolet (UV) plasmon resonances. For photon energies < 5.7 eV, analysis of ellipsometric spectra reveals an increase in silicon reflectance induced by indium NP arrays on silicon. For various energies in the range 5.7–7.0 eV, a decrease in reflectance is induced by the NP arrays. Similar trends in reflectance are predicted from finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations using NP size distributions extracted from atomic-force micrographs as input. In addition, in the energy range of 7.4–9.2 eV, the FDTD simulations reveal reflectance minima, characteristic of localized surface plasmon resonances. Electron energy-loss spectroscopy collected from individual indium NPs reveals the presence of LSPR at ≈ 8 eV, further supporting the promise of indium NP arrays on silicon for deep-UV plasmonics.
