<p>The electromagnetic properties of various plasmonic nanostructures are investigated. These nanostructures, which include random clusters, controlled clusters and particle-film hybrids are applied to surface-enhanced ...
<p>The properties of nanoparticle sensors intended for real- time monitoring of low concentration of elemental mercury (Hg) vapor and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are presented and discussed. This sensor for mercury ...
<p>The refractive index sensitivity of plasmonic nanoparticles is utilized in the development of real-time, label-free biodetection. Analyte molecules that bind to receptor-conjugated nanoparticles cause an increase in ...
<p>Methylmercury is a bioaccumulative neurotoxin that severely endangers human health. Humans are exposed to methylmercury through consumption of contaminated aquatic fish. To date, effective strategies for preventing and ...
