表面プラズモン共鳴法によるバイオ計測の現状

抄録

This article describes recent progress of surface plasmon related techniques for bio-application. The first part is concerning propagating surface plasmon resonance (SPR), where we discuss the complication of nano to micron scale inhomogeneous materials for characterization by the interfacial waves. The second part is concerning crystalline sheets composed of metallic nanoparticles (‘plasmonic nanosheet’). This nano-thickness sheet exhibits a unique optical property originating from the two dimensionally coupled localized SPR. The concept to use the plasmonic nanosheet for new biosensing devices is introduced.
