Abstract
In this Rapid Communication we show the relationship between surface plasmon resonance damping and the intensity of surface bonding for capped Au nanoparticles, (NPs). Up to now the influence of capping has been included as a phenomenological modification of the scattering constant. It is indicated here that the effective NP size is the parameter mainly affected by surface bonding. Experimental results in different Au-thiol NPs are shown to be in excellent agreement with the expression we propose for damping. Moreover, according to our model the resonance profile gives a deep insight of the interface bonding strength.
