Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance Based Nanobiosensors

Abstract

Nanoparticles with various sizes and shapes produce unique localized surface plasmon resonance bands and exhibit different physical and chemical properties. For instance, catalytic ability, sensitivity to changes in the surrounding medium, and biocompatibility are all dependent on the morphology of nanoparticles. In recent decades, various types of nanostructures have been fabricated to tune plasmon resonance bands, enhance the electromagnetic field around metal nanoparticles, and determine the relationship between the size and shape of nanoparticles and their LSPR band. In this chapter, we discuss the effect of morphology on plasmonic properties and the related applications.
