Far-field optical spectroscopy allows for measurement of plasmonic resonances on metallic nanostructures of various shapes and sizes when illuminated by continuous light. Employing dark-field microscopy makes it possible to measure scattering on a localised plasmon excited on a single, isolated nanostructure. For the purpose of these measurements an apparatus based on commercial dual microscope system Nanonics has been put together. Experiments carried out during work on this thesis have shown a great sensitivity of the apparatus in its present form, allowing to measure a plasmonic resonance of a single nanoparticle. Proposed improvements of the apparatus should lead to even greater sensitivity and precision of measurements in the near future.
