Are surface plasmons always required for absorbing light in metallic nanostrutures

Metallic nanostructures are widely studied in order to enhance the light matter interaction, with important applications in photovoltaic cells. Surface plasmons are involved in all presented metallic nanostructures. In this talk, we will show that a buried gold substrate can full absorb light without the help of surface plasmons, which opens the way for conceiving cost effective absorbers made of metallic layers.
