Selective TERS detection and imaging through controlled plasmonics.
Enhanced Raman spectroscopy offers capabilities to detect molecules in the complex molecular environments and image chemical heterogeneity in a wide range of samples. It has been shown that plasmonic interactions between a TERS tip and a metal surface produce significant enhancements. In this report we show how SERS spectra from purified molecules can be used to selectively image proteins on su...
متن کاملPlasmonics Meets Biology through Optics
Plasmonic metallic nanoparticles (NPs) represent a relevant class of nanomaterials, which is able to achieve light localization down to nanoscale by exploiting a phenomenon called Localized Plasmon Resonance. In the last few years, NPs have been proposed to trigger DNA release or enhance ablation of diseased tissues, while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. In view of the therapeutic relevan...
متن کاملTunable UV-Emitters through Graphene Plasmonics.
Control over the spontaneous emission of light through tailored optical environments remains a fundamental paradigm in nanophotonics. The use of highly confined plasmons in materials such as graphene provides a promising platform to enhance transition rates in the IR-THz by many orders of magnitude. However, such enhancements involve near-field plasmon modes or other kinds of near-field couplin...
متن کاملTargeted-TERS detection of integrin receptors on human cancer cells.
Membrane receptors play important roles in regulating cellular activities. Targeting membrane receptors in cancer cells and understanding their interactions with specific ligands are key for cancer prognosis and therapeutics. However, there is a need to develop new technologies to provide molecular insight into ligand-receptor binding chemistry in cell membrane. Integrin receptors are important...
متن کاملPlasmonics for near-field nano-imaging and superlensing
Scientists have long dreamt of an optical microscope that can be used to see a sample in nanometre resolution. Because light propagates through water and air, an optical microscope can be used to see, in vivo, the details of living matter and other materials in their unperturbed natural condition. In addition, an optical microscope provides colour images that contain much richer information tha...
