However, in a recent paper Loirette-Pelouse and Greffet pointed out that the PL emitted from a metal nanostructure is proportional to the absorption coefficient of the structure, regardless of the nature of the absorption process. This connection between absorption and PL is a direct consequence of Lorentz reciprocity and simply states that the presence of an electromagnetic resonance increases the probability of light emission. Consequently, the influence of the LSPR on the emission is completely expressed in its contribution to the absorption coefficient. Given the comparable magnitude of the interband and LSPR absorptions in Figure , we would therefore not expect the PL to be selectively enhanced in the LSPR region compared to the PL in the interband region (see SI for a simulation of the expected interband PL). This strongly suggests that interband PL from the L-point is suppressed in the AuNFs studied.
