Research Abstract |
The development of sensing methods using near-infrared (IR) light has been becoming more and more important. As one of the most promising approaches, special focusing was made in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in near-IR region. In this project, large-scale synthetic methods of various sizes of silver nanoplates have been developed with industrial collaboration. Next, surfaces of silver nanoplates were modified with hydrophobic polymers and molecules, and then adsorbed onto the surface of glass plate. With changing the size and density of silver nanoplates, I have succeeded in proposing highly-sensitive SPR sensing devices working in near-IR region.
