| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present investigation, we have tried to establish the novel molecular manipulation method using localized surface plasmon resonance. Recently, several theoretical studies have expected that very small particles or molecules can be optically trapped in the strong optical field due to its spatial gradient. Based on this fact, we have attempted to observe the plasmonic molecular trapping behavior via surface-enhanced Raman scattering measurements. Furthermore, for the arbitrary control of the molecular trapping behavior, we have introduced the electrochemical method into the system which can control the molecular adsorption state at the metal surface. The present achievements would indicate the possibility for the realization of the future molecular control method and the arbitrary control of the localized chemical reactions.
