    "abstract": "We study propagation of TM- and TE-polarized light in two-dimensional arrays\nof silver nanorods of various diameters in a gelatin background. We calculate\nthe transmittance, reflectance and absorption of arranged and disordered\nnanorod arrays and compare the exact numerical results with the predictions of\nthe Maxwell-Garnett effective-medium theory. We show that interactions between\nnanorods, multipole contributions and formations of photonic gaps affect\nstrongly the transmittance spectra that cannot be accounted for in terms of the\nconventional effective-medium theory. We also demonstrate and explain the\ndegradation of the transmittance in arrays with randomly located rods as well\nas weak influence of their fluctuating diameter. For TM modes we outline the\nimportance of skin-effect, which causes the full reflection of the incoming\nlight. We then illustrate the possibility of using periodic arrays of nanorods\nas high-quality polarizers.",
