  Abstract:
Glancing angle deposition (GLAD) is an efficient and inexpensive method to fabricate nanostructures with diverse complexities. However, this method has a limitation in fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures with narrow resonance peaks causing that the GLAD-nanostructures have rarely been used for refractive-index sensing. In this work, we proposed two approaches to overcome this limitation of GLAD and to fabricate Ag nanostructures with narrow plasmonic peaks. In the first approach, we introduce an effective method for seeding modification of the substrate and then growing the Ag nanocolumns on such seeded layer. The optical characterization shows that such pre-seeding of the substrate leads to nearly 40
