Hole-mask colloidal nanolithography for large-area low-cost metamaterials and antenna-assisted surface-enhanced infrared absorption substrates.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use low-cost hole-mask colloidal nanolithography to manufacture large-area resonant split-ring metamaterials and measure their infrared optical properties. This novel substrate is employed for antenna-assisted surface-enhanced infrared absorption measurements using octadecanethiol (ODT) and deuterated ODT, which demonstrates easy adjustability of our material to vibrational modes. Our method has the potential to make resonant plasmon-enhanced infrared spectroscopy a standard lab tool in biology, pharmacology, and medicine.

Large-area Low-cost Fabrication of Complex Plasmonic Nanostructures for Sensing Applications
In this thesis, we introduce hole-mask colloidal lithography and nanosphere lithography techniques for low-cost nanofabrication of large-area (about 1 cm) plasmonic nanostructures with different complex shapes. For the first one, we use thin film PMMA-gold hole-masks, which are first prepared with polystyrene colloids, combined with following tilted-angle-rotation evaporation to fabricate large...

Many nano-optical applications require a suitable nanofabrication technology. Hole-mask colloidal nanolithography has proven to be a low-cost and large-area alternative for the fabrication of complex plasmonic nanostructures as well as metamaterials. In this paper, we describe the fabrication process step by step. We manufacture a variety of different plasmonic structures ranging from simple na...
متن کاملRepetitive Hole-Mask Colloidal Lithography for the Fabrication of Large-Area Low-Cost Plasmonic Multishape Single-Layer Metasurfaces
Nanostructuring for tailored optical functionality suffers from a lack of methods for large-area and low-cost fabrication. While electron beam lithography allows different complex shapes to be deposited onto the same substrate layer, the writing process is sequential and the fabrication is very expensive. Large-area methods, such as nanosphere lithography, [ 1 ] colloidal lithography using shad...
متن کاملTunable Nanoantennas for Surface Enhanced Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy by Colloidal Lithography and Post-Fabrication Etching
We fabricated large-area metallic (Al and Au) nanoantenna arrays on Si substrates using cost-effective colloidal lithography with different micrometer-sized polystyrene spheres. Variation of the sphere size leads to tunable plasmon resonances in the middle infrared (MIR) range. The enhanced near-fields allow us to detect the surface phonon polaritons in the natural SiO2 thin layers. We demonstr...
متن کاملSurface Enhanced Raman Scattering of Crystal Violet with Low Concentrations Using Self-Assembled Silver and Gold-Silver Core-Shell Nanoparticles
The active substrates in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy were prepared through self-assembly of nanoparticles on functionalized glasses. Colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared chemically in two different sizes by reduction of AgNO3 using trisodium citrate and sodium borohydride. Gold–silver core–shell nanoparticles were also prepared to compare between the o...
