The plasmonic properties of asymmetric Au / SiO 2/ Au sandwiched cross-shape nanobars are investigated theoretically using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) method. Two localized surface plasmon resonances are observed in the extinction spectra, which perform extreme sensitivity to the length and width of the nanobar and can be tuned easily throughout visible and into near-infrared spectral regions. The local electric fields around the nanobar are calculated and a pure electromagnetic Raman enhancement factor of about 106 can be achieved. In addition, compared to a monolayer gold nanobar, it exhibits more "hot spots" and stronger localized electric field enhancements. This plasmonic substrate provides potential applications in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and nonlinear optical devices.
