Abstract

Field-enhanced biosensing has attracted considerable attention due to its capability of highly sensitive biomolecular detection and analysis. We have been developing a variety of nano-spectroscopic methods in combination with plasmonics and metamaterials where optical nanostructures play a crucial role in enhancing various optical signals (visible absorption/reflection, Raman scattering, fluorescence, and infrared absorption) from targeting biomolecules. Here in this talk, we focus on our recent works on high-sensitivity and super-resolution nano-spectroscopies for biomolecular analysis.
