Abstract: Qualitative resemblance between photopolymerization patterns induced in a commercial photoresist SU-8 by optical near-field of surface plasmons localized on rectangular gold nanorods was observed. This finding indicates the possibility of a fast qualitative near-field imaging by embedding metallic nanoparticle structures into photopolymerizeable media and examining the shapes of polymerized regions using high-resolution electron-scanning or atomic force microscopies following the optical exposure
