The efficiency of the method is demonstrated on a specific example of a crystal of metallic spheroids. We report a thorough analysis of the optical properties of this crystal and discuss aspects of the underlying physics that relate to the nonspherical shape of the particles.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></record></records></xml>
