We explore the evolution of plasmonic modes in two-dimensional nanocrystal oligomer metamolecules as the number of nanocrystals is systematically varied. Precise, hexagonally ordered Au nanocrystal oligomers with 1-31 members are assembled via capillary forces into polygonal topographic templates defined using electron-beam lithography. The visible and near-infrared scattering response of individual oligomers is measured by spatially resolved, polarized darkfield scattering spectroscopy. The response is highly sensitive to in-plane versus out of-plane incident polarization, and we observe an exponentially saturating red shift in plasmon resonance wavelength as the number of nanocrystals per oligomer increases, in agreement with theoretical predictions. Simulations further elucidate the modes supported by the oligomers, including electric dipole and magnetic dipole resonances and their Fano interference. The single-oligomer sensitivity of our measurements also reveals the role of positional disorder in determining the wavelength and character of the plasmonic response. The progression of oligomer metamolecule structures studied here advances our understanding of fundamental plasmonic interactions in the transition regime between few-member plasmonic clusters and extended two-dimensional arrays.
