Download or read book Nanoantenna written by Marc Lamy de la Chapelle and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book concentrates on the various fields related to the development of a nanobiosensor and presents the latest information from renowned experts. It focuses on the enhanced spectroscopy, including SERS, SEIRA/SEIRS, and near-field optics, and the related physical processes (optical properties of metallic nanoparticles, plasmon resonance, field enhancement, etc.). Some applications in the biological and medical field are presented to show the potential of such techniques as sensors if combined with functionalization.
