Nanoplasmonic Structures in Optical Fibers

摘要: The intense research efforts on the development, fabrication, characterization, and application of metallic nanostructures films that support surface plasmon resonance (SPR) constitute a field called nanoplasmonics. Although SPR biosensing is well established, development new nanoplasmonic approaches for still very active area, as it can be attested by range topics covered in this book. approach widely used biochemistry biomedical research, because offers “label-free” alternative detection quantification biomolecular interactions. objective chapter to focus integration sensing elements optical fiber technology. Initially, selected examples applications analytical sciences are presented. Next, techniques fabricate fiber-based devices developed SERS discussed. Examples based plasmonic provided. nano- plasmonics has been effervescence recent years, wide-coverage review intended give more comprehensive understanding current state-of-the-art interested reader.
