"Cylindrical, metallic nanowires were electrochemically grown in nanochannels created in polymer membranes by etching of ion tracks. These nanowires consisted of\r\nAu or AuAg alloy with varying element ratio. In additon, segmented Au-rich/Ag-rich/Au-rich nanowires were synthesized by applying pulsed deposition. The duration\r\nof the pulses controls the length of the segments. By subsequent chemical dissolution\r\nnanowires separated by nanogaps with dimensions as small as 5 nm were also created,\r\nso-called nanowire dimers. Incomplete dissolution of the gap resulted in dimers connected\r\nby a conductive junction. Upon the excitation of surface plasmons in dimers\r\nseparated by nanogaps smaller than 20 nm, high field enhancement is generated in\r\nthe nanogap. We analysed the plasmonic properties of the synthesized structures by\r\nelectron energy loss spectroscopy in a transmission electron microscope. This method\r\nenables the simultaneous investigation of the nanostructure morphology and the surface\r\nplasmon resonance energies. The analysis of single nanowires, and capacitively\r\nand conductively coupled nanowire dimers revealed that the resonance energies depend\r\nsensitively on many parameters, as length, diameter, gap size, as well as composition\r\nand morphology. Precise knowledge of the plasmonic properties of the synthesized\r\nstructures are important for the future applications as substrates for surface enhanced\r\ninfrared and Raman spectroscopy."^^ .
