Absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a bimetallic cylindrical particle of finite length

The absorption cross section of electromagnetic radiation is calculated for a bimetallic cylindrical particle of finite length. A general case is considered, where the ratio of the radius of the particle core to the particle radius and the ratio of the radius of the particle to its length can take arbitrary values. The conditions of diffuse reflection of electrons from the internal and external surfaces of the metal shell of the particle and from its faces are used as the boundary conditions of the problem. The effect of the ratio of the radius of the core of a bimetallic cylindrical particle to the particle radius and the ratio of the radius of the particle to its length on the electromagnetic properties of the particle is analyzed.
