Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biomolecules are known to express their biological functions through the structural fluctuations. In this research, we developed a vibrational spectroscopic method to analyze bio-molecular functions and dynamics using field-enhanced Raman effects caused by plasmonic nanostructures. This method developed here will open a new way to deeply understand underlaying mechanisms of biomolecular recognition reactions.
