ABSTRACT
Light scattering by nanoœbers plays an important role in optical processes at the nanoscale. Being grown on a substrate, nanoœbers form an irregular array. ›e optical properties of such an ensemble are determined, on the one hand, by the optical
response of individual aggregates and, on the other hand, by light scattering from nanoœbers, which results in interaction between them. Light incident at a sample can launch the nanoœber optical modes or create excitons. Both processes manifest themselves in the intensity distribution of scattered light, thus providing valuable information on di˜erent nanoœber properties.
