• , plasmonic structures fabricated by nanosphere lithography can also be used for other purposes. Soft lithography [54] is an alternative technique for nano- and micro-fabrication involving the inverse replication of a mold with the aid of elastomeric polymers. It can be reliably scaled down to sizes of ~100
