Surface Plasmon Resonance

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.The excitation of surface plasmons by light is denoted as a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for planar surfaces or localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) for nanometer-sized metallic structures. This phenomenon is the basis of many standard tools for measuring adsorption of material onto planar metal (typically gold and silver) surfaces or onto the surface of metal nanoparticles. It is behind many color based biosensor applications and different lab-on-a-chip sensors.
