Fabrication of Plasmonic Membrane for Sensor Application using Membrane Filter as a Template

Abstract

In this study, the plasmonic membrane which constructed with the noble metal nanostrcutres on the membrane filter was fabricated for localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-based sensor applications. This plasmonic membrane can be fabricated rapidly and due to the deposition of the noble metal layer onto the membrane filter. This plasmonic membrane exhibit the specific optical characteristics by the LSPR. And the LSPR absorbance peak wavelength change could be observed which depends on the thickness of the noble metal layer. Based on these LSPR characteristics of the plasmonic membrane, evaluation of sensing performance with different surrounding refractive index was carried out.
