Summarizing table concerning the use of plasmon-assisted 2-photon polymerization. Left column: initial point-group symmetry of the metal nanostructures. Other columns: calculated plasmonic near-field (λ = 780 or 730 nm) used for P2PP (one or two step exposure) and resulting active medium distribution, as observed by scanning electron microscopy. The FDTD maps show the amplitude of the plasmonic near-field, except in the third line, which shows intensity maps. Two bottom lines: complementary data showing a D_3h symmetry Au nanotriangle whose dipolar modes can be selectively selected to structure the active medium and (last line) a D_6h symmetry Au multimodal nanostructure that led to a D_2h-symmetry polymer medium containing quantum emitters. The red arrows represent the polarization used for P2PP. The white scale bars represent 100 nm.
