Abstract :
In this work we describe and present an analytic framework based on the extended boundary condition method capable of describing coupling between a high Q photonic resonator and a metal based nanoparticle supporting low Q plasmonic resonances. Approximate hybrid photonic-plasmonic resonance conditions are derived and the physical consequences of coupling explored.
