Radiative decay engineering 5: metal-enhanced fluorescence and plasmon emission

TL;DR: The RP model provides a rational approach for designing fluorophore-metal configurations with the desired emissive properties and a basis for nanophotonic fluorophores technology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiative decay engineering: biophysical and biomedical applications.

TL;DR: This forward-looking article describes a new opportunity in fluorescence, radiative decay engineering (RDE), and predicts that nearby metal surfaces can be used to increase the low intrinsic quantum yields of nucleic acids and make unlabeled DNA detectable using its intrinsic metal-enhanced fluorescence.

Fluorescence near interfaces: The role of photonic mode density

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the role of surface and waveguide modes in photonic near interfaces is presented, including the importance of textured surfaces in providing large changes in the photonic mode density and coupling non-radiative modes to radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface enhanced spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the physical processes occuring when solid surfaces are used to modify, in a substantial way, the spectroscopic properties of molecules located nearby are reviewed, which is achieved by enhancement of the local laser field, increase in molecular emission, and decrease in excited state lifetime.
