Hi Jones,
Some googlin' found Cameron Jones, a fungal expert now in private
industry...
https://www.drcameronjones.com/pages/academicpublications
Here's a couple of his papers listed on with /plasmon resonance/:
JONES, C.L. (2004). Exploiting the Surface Plasmon Resonance Effect

Encryption. (Computers). ASM 2004 Annual Scientific Meeting. 26

This paper sounds like plasmon resonance is read with the CD ROM laser
diode, and the plasmon activity is on patterns of dots put directly on
the CD ROM surface with a disc label printer:

I hope to run across work on plasmon resonance in nano-fibers, to
develop a few fibers grown on a glass slide to act as an analog of
fluorescence, but in the magnetic domain. I want a plasmon plane to act
as a magnetic pattern enticer in a magnetic bucking design. The
enticer-plane nano-fibers needs to establish an inductive coupling with
the flux patterns of an oscillator. This is only a developing design so
far.
I think I've read/seen pictures of platinum nano-fibers grown from
solution on a surface. Any info is appreciated.
Cheers,
Don

Don,
Very interesting. Was the work published?
Sounds like a long lost missed opportunity for something...
> Here's FYI of something similar, Jones, et al.
When I was young and dumber I knew of a Dr. Cameron Jones who no
longer works at Swinburne Uni. where he diluted colloidal gold to the
proper density to get the correct spacing that entertained a plasmon
resonance when painted on a surface.
He painted CD ROMs with this gold-dot 'plasmonic surface' and the CD
diode read laser plasmon information as visual image alterations. The
Doctor suggested the skew indicated the plasmon resonance had a
knowledge of the architecture of the image encoded in the CD
dot-track. But there /were /echos of other dot-tracks evident in the
images I saw posted. The technique does make and detect plasmon resonance.
In the 90-s. Then he retired from academics to run the Blue Velvet
night club.

The possibility of an energy anomaly based on gold plasmons from
nanoparticles being irradiated by lasers –using beat frequency or
not - leads to an idea for a simple low cost experiment.
Gold nanoparticle colloids are available at remarkably low prices due
to growing use as cure-all dietary supplements.
Obviously you don’t get much gold for $20 bucks on Amazon but your
don’t need much.

Gold nanoparticles (on Amazon) would be interesting when irradiated
by one or more small lasers.
Add a little heavy water to the colloid and who knows what will turn
up? This could happen on a microscope slide for instance – if you
want a close up view.

Has it been ruled out that the energy anomaly is not partly or solely
due to plasmon formation alone ?

If the "islands" were in the size range of 2-12 nm, then the Casimir
effect could come into play. The so-called "Wood's Anomalies" have
been known for a century in various forms - and this plasmon anomaly
of Hagelstein et al could be related to that.

IOW there is a possibility of actual energy gain from plasmon
radiation alone which may or may not also have a nuclear effect as a
secondary reaction when deuterium is present.
