Surface Plasmon Resonance for Biosensing: A Mini-Review

TLDR
A variety of configurations and formats have been devised to exploit the phenomenon of surface plasmon on metal dielectric interfaces for sensing a variety of significant analytes, such as pesticides and explosives, pathogens and toxins, and diseased tissue as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
A variety of configurations and formats have been devised to exploit the phenomenon of surface plasmon on metal dielectric interfaces for sensing a variety of significant analytes, such as pesticides and explosives, pathogens and toxins, and diseased tissue. Researchers continue to aim at detecting lower concentrations in smaller volumes of samples in real time. A new research field, called nanoplasmnonics, has emerged in this regard.

Modeling Chiral Sculptured Thin Films as Platforms for Surface-Plasmonic-Polaritonic Optical Sensing

TL;DR: In this article, an empirical model was constructed to describe SPP-wave propagation guided by the planar interface of a chiral sculptured thin film (CSTF)-infiltrated with a fluid which supposedly contains analytes to be detected-and a metal.

Notizen: Radiative Decay of Non Radiative Surface Plasmons Excited by Light

TL;DR: In this paper, it has been shown that the non-radiative mode excited by light can also radiate under certain conditions if they are excited by electrons (grazing incidence of electrons on a rough surface or at normal incidence on a grating).
