We propose a new approach for tuning the Surface Plasmon (SP) resonance wavelength using hybrid nanoparticles. Our approach is based on nanoscale photopolymerization around metal nanoparticles. The enhanced optical near-field of silver nanoparticles triggers local photopolymerization. As a result, atomic force microscopy reveals two nanoscale polymerized lobes around nanoparticles, with a controlled effective index distribution. A spectral breaking degeneracy of surface plasmon resonance of the nanoparticles has been demonstrated by polarized extinction spectroscopy.
