Collective lattice resonances (CLRs) in finite-sized $ 2D $2D arrays of dielectric nanospheres have been studied via the coupled dipole approximation. We show that even for sufficiently large arrays, up to 100 \times $100×100 nanoparticles (NPs), electric or magnetic CLRs may differ significantly from ones calculated infinite with same NP sizes and interparticle distances. The discrepancy is explained by existence a strong cross-interaction between dipoles induced at NPs lattices, which...

Contrarily, affects only MD response, while ED resonance can be almost intact, configuration. Finally,...
