Imaging surface plasmon resonance

The central theme of this thesis is the use of imaging Surface Plasmon Resonance (iSPR) as a tool in the characterization of surfaces with laterally varying properties. Within the scope of this work, an instrument for iSPR analysis was designed and built. SPR is a very sensitive technique for monitoring changes in optical properties in the immediate vicinity of a sensor surface, which is very u...

Introduction to Surface Plasmon Resonance

Since its first observation by Wood in 1902 [1,2], the physical phenomenon of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has found its way into practical applications in sensitive detectors, capable of detecting sub-monomolecular coverage. What is surface plasmon resonance? Wood observed a pattern of ‘‘anomalous’’ dark and light bands in the reflected light, when he shone polarized light on a mirror with ...
