Book excerpt: Over the last three decades, sensors based on the phenomenon of surface plasmon resonance have proven particularly suitable for real time thin film characterization, gas detection, biomolecular interaction examination and to supplement electrochemical methods. Systems based on prism coupling have been combined with fluorescence detection under the name of surface plasmon fluorescence spectroscopy to increase sensitivity even further. Alternatively, metal gratings can be employed to match photons for plasmon resonance. The real time monitoring of binding reactions not yet been reported in the combination of fluorescence detection and grating coupling. Grating-based systems promise more competitive products, because of reduced operating costs, and offer benefits for device engineering. This thesis is comprised of a comprehensive study of the suitability of grating coupling for fluorescence based analyte detection. Fundamental properties of grating coupled surface plasmon fluorescence spectroscopy are described, as well as issues related to the commercial realization of the method. Several new experimental techniques are introduced and demonstrated in order to optimize performance in certain areas and improve upon capabilities in respect to prism-based systems. Holographically fabricated gratings are characterized by atomic force microscopy and optical methods, aided by simulations and profile parameters responsible for efficient coupling are analyzed. The directional emission of fluorophores immobilized on a grating surface is studied in detail, including the magnitude and geometry of the fluorescence emission pattern for different grating constants and polarizations. Additionally, the separation between the minimum of the reflected intensity and the maximum fluorescence excitation position is examined. One of the key requirements for the commercial feasibility of grating coupling is the cheap and faithful mass production of disposable samples from a given master grat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover how metal-enhanced fluorescence is changing traditional concepts of fluorescence This book collects and analyzes all the current trends, opinions, and emerging hot topics in the field of metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF). Readers learn how this emerging technology enhances the utility of current fluorescence-based approaches. For example, MEF can be used to better detect and track specific molecules that may be present in very low quantities in either clinical samples or biological systems. Author Chris Geddes, a noted pioneer in the field, not only explains the fundamentals of metal-enhanced fluorescence, but also the significance of all the most recent findings and models in the field. Metal-enhanced fluorescence refers to the use of metal colloids and nanoscale metallic particles in fluorescence systems. It offers researchers the opportunity to modify the basic properties of fluorophores in both near- and far-field fluorescence formats. Benefits of metal-enhanced fluorescence compared to traditional fluorescence include: Increased efficiency of fluorescence emission Increased detection sensitivity Protect against fluorophore photobleaching Applicability to almost any molecule, including both intrinsic and extrinsic chromophores Following a discussion of the principles and fundamentals, the author examines the process and applications of metal-enhanced fluorescence. Throughout the book, references lead to the primary literature, facilitating in-depth investigations into particular topics. Guiding readers from the basics to state-of-the-technology applications, this book is recommended for all chemists, physicists, and biomedical engineers working in the field of fluorescence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the important physical phenomenon of Surface Plasmon Resonance or Surface Plasmon Polaritons in thin metal films, a phenomenon which is exploited in the design of a large variety of physico-chemical optical sensors. In this treatment, crucial materials aspects for design and optimization of SPR sensors are investigated and outlined in detail. The text covers the selection of nanometer thin metal films, ranging from free-electron to the platinum type conductors, along with their combination with a large variety of dielectric substrate materials, and associated individual layer and opto-geometric arrangements. Furthermore, as-yet hardly explored SPR features of selected metal–metal and metal–dielectric super lattices are included in this report. An in-depth multilayer Fresnel evaluation provides the mathematical tool for this optical analysis, which otherwise relies solely on experimentally determined electro-optical materials parameters.
