Résumé

The paper presents theoretical justification for the possibility of formation of nanoparticle structures with the predefined configuration. The process of formation is the self-organized aggregation of nanoparticles under the action of external resonant laser field. The formation of various nanostructures that contain metallic and semiconducting nanoparticles with resonances in the visible spectrum is considered in the dipole-dipole approximation.
