ON THE COVER: Synthesis and Plasmonic Properties of Nanostructures. (clockwise from top right) Droplets of gold and silver nanostructures show a few of the many shapes that can be produced with wet-chemical synthesis. A silver nanoparticle array displays the precise patterns enabled by nanosphere lithography. A random array of chemically synthesized silver nanoparticles shines like colorful stars in a dark-field resonant Raleigh scattering image. Nanohole arrays (upper left) and chains of metallic waveguides (background), which localize, amplify, and guide light below the free-space wavelength, could in the future be integrated with nano-structured biosensors to create nanophotonic nanostructured devices. (Cover design by Ben Wiley.) See the technical theme that begins on p. 338.
