Scattering intensity for particles with different diameters, d, and heights, h.

Caption

Scattering intensity for particles with different diameters, d, and heights, h. The material of the nanoparticle is a 70% silver - 30% mercury alloy, and the inset in the lower-left corner shows representative HA-SEM images of the nanostructures on the surface of a daguerreotype. In all cases, the scale bar is 200 nm.
