(a) Experimental wavelength dependence of the Kerr rotation on 95 nm nickel disks in air (black symbols) and immersed in PMMA (red symbols). (b) Corresponding experimental inverse Kerr rotation for 95 nm nanodisks in air (black symbols) and in PMMA (red symbols). The lines are guide for eyes. The inset shows the calculated inverse Kerr rotation in media with three different surrounding refractive indices (nm = 1.17 (black), 1.20 (blue), 1.23 (red)) for nickel nanodisks with diameter 100 nm and thickness 30 nm.
