The optical response of systems comprising polarizable molecules and metal nanoparticles is of fundamental and technological interest. The interaction of electromagnetic radiation with such systems is computed by combining the Maxwell equations for the radiation field with the Liouville-Bloch equations for the molecular subsystem in a self-consistent manner. This talk will describe our results on the optical response of atomic/molecular clusters and composite metal-molecule systems as well as molecular energy transfer and plasmon transmission in such systems.
