Research Abstract |
In this project, we investigated the plasmonic properties of the metallic objects from the nanoscale down to the atom-scale mainly in the infrared region, and then applied its strong field-enhancing properties for the realization of high-sensitivity biomolecule sensing in solution and environmental monitoring of lacustrine water as well as energy conversion materials with plasmonic enhancements.
