The Purcell effect of a nanoshell dimer on the fluorescence single molecule placed within dimer's gap is studied. numerical results show that acts as an antenna, making energy transfer from excited to more efficient, and lowpass filter for radiation far field. Moreover, enhancement factor much higher than solid Au in longer-wavelength regime.
