Normalized extinction spectra of gold nanorods with increasingly red-shifted longitudinal plasmon bands, synthesized using 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 μL of silver nitrate in the growth solution for curves 1–5, respectively. Normalization of the spectra is done with respect to the transverse plasmon peak amplitudes.
