title: Advances in surface plasmon resonance sensing with nanoparticles and thin films: nanomaterials, surface chemistry, and hybrid plasmonic techniques.
abstract: Nanomaterials developed for localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) are increasingly integrated to classical prism-based SPR sensors, providing enhanced sensitivity and lower detection limits. The unique properties of these novel nanomaterials in addition to novel surface chemistry to minimize nonspecific adsorption and surface plasmon-coupled techniques with other spectroscopic or mass spectrometry techniques are highlighted in this article.
