It also uses these techniques and others to analyse such systems and discovers extremely useful results regarding the optical response of various systems including nano-tori(doughnut shaped particles). It also presents a thorough analysis of the optics of two nano-spheres placed close to each other, with a general treatment extensible to other more complex setups.
