Explains the principles and current thinking behind plasmon-enhanced fluorescence

Fluorescence-based plasmonics has already started to change the way both we use and think about fluorescence spectroscopy today and is in stark contrast to how we have all traditionally utilize fluorescence. It has been used to develop numerous approaches for imaging and sensing in the analytical sciences, to synthesize fluorophores that are fluorescence sensitive to a vast array of analytes or biomolecules, and even used to develop highly sensitive and ultrafast instrumentation to undertake the most challenging physiological/cellular measurements.

Much of the work on fluorescent-based plasmonics has focused on using surface plasmons and their associated e-fields for enhancing fluorescence signatures. This has been referred to as surface-enhanced fluorescence, plasmon-enhanced fluorescence, and, most popularly, metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF). Surface plasmons have been used to enhance the surface sensitivity of several spectroscopic measurements including fluorescence and Raman scattering. SPR reflectivity measurements can be used to detect molecular adsorption, such as polymers, DNA, or proteins.

Surface Plasmon Enhanced, Coupled And Controlled Fluorescence explains the principles behind metal–fluorophore interactions and details how this important discovery can be used in life sciences to detect and quantify DNA, proteins, and RNA more quickly and accurately. The applications in this book are likely to have profound implications in biosciences and promise to change the way we both think about and use fluorescence.

Containing contributions from the world's leading scientists in the area of fluorescence and plasmonics, Surface Plasmon Enhanced, Coupled And Controlled Fluorescence features:

• Current developments in surface plasmon-enhanced, surface plasmon-coupled, and surface plasmon-controlled fluorescence
• Methods used to synthesize and characterize both surfaces and nanoparticles for MEF
• Comprehensive collection of current trends and thoughts and emerging hot aspects in the field of metal–fluorophore interactions and applications
• Coverage on cutting-edge research leading to the development of new equipment

This volume is an essential reference material for any lab working in the field of fluorescence and plasmonics and other related areas. All academics, bench scientists, and industry professionals wishing to take advantage of the latest and greatest in the continuously emerging field of plasmonics and fluorescence will find it an invaluable resource.
