The effect of surface plasmon on ZTO thin films was investigated. The phenomenon of depletion occurring in the interface of the ZTO thin film created a potential barrier and the dielectric layer of the depletion formed a non-mass particle called plasmon. ZTO thin film represents n-type semiconductor features, and surface current by plasma has been able to obtain the effect of improving electrical efficiency as a result of high current at positive voltage and low current at negative voltage. It can be seen that the reduction of electric charge due to recombination of electronic hole pairs by heat treatment of compound semiconductors induces higher surface current in semiconductor devices.

A gap surface plasmon resonator have received considerable attention because it can dramatically enhance the absorption of the electromagnetic field. However, whereas most of studies were just focused on the absorption within a narrow range of wavelength, few studies have been performed for the broadband absorption in the visible range. Therefore, in this study, we discuss methods that can induce broadband light absorption using gap plasmon resonance in visible regime. The gap plasmon resonator will offer great potential for appplications to solar cells and bioimaging.

An immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with enhanced performance was developed through a mixed self-assembled monolayer. A mixture of 16-mercaptohexadecanic acid (16-MHA) and 1-undecanethiol with various molar ratios was self-assembled on gold (Au) surface and the carboxylic acid groups of 16-MHA were then coordinated to Zn ions by exposing the substrate to an ethanolic solution of $Zn(NO_3)_2\cdot 6H_2O$. The antibody was immobilized on the SPR surface by exposing the functionalized substrate to the desired solution of antibody in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) molecules. The film formation in series was confirmed by SPR and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The functionalized surface was applied to develop an SPR immunosensor for detecting human serum albumin (HSA) and the estimated detection limit (DL) was 4.27 nM. The limit value concentration can be well measured between ill and healthy conditions.

This study reports a fiber-optic sensor detecting biomolecule by simultaneously monitoring localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) from gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) of ca. $50{\pm}5$ nm attached on one end of optical fiber and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of the reporter molecules adsorbed on the gold surfaces as an additional sensing tool. The sensor was fabricated by immobilizing Au NPs on one end of an optical fiber by chemical reaction. LSPR and SERS signals of the sensor were measured using various refractive indices solutions. Finally, the sensor was applied to observe real-time LSPR sensor-gram and SERS spectra of the reporter molecule of 4-aminothiphenol during the antibody-antigen reaction of interferon-gamma (IFN-${\gamma}$) as a proof-concept experiment of biological applications.

An immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) onto a protein G layer by Self-assembly technique was developed for detection of Legionella pneumophila. The protein G layer by self-assembly technique was fabricated on a gold (Au) surface by adsorbing the 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) and an activation process for the chemical binding of the free amino (-NH$_2$) of protein G and 11-(MUA) using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC) in series. The formation of the protein G layer by self-assembly technique on the Au Substrate and the binding of the antibody and antigen in series were confirmed by SPR spectroscopy. The Surface topographies of the fabricated thin films on an Au substrate were also analyzed by using an atomic force microscope (AFM). Consequently, an immunosensor for the detection of L. pneumophila using SPR was developed with a detection limit of up to 10$^2$CFU per mL.

An immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with a self-assembled protein G layer was developed for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. A self-assembled protein C layer on a gold (Au) surface was fabricated by adsorbing the mixture of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) and hexanethiol at various molar ratios and by activating chemical binding between free amine (-$NH_2$) of protein G and 11-(MUA) using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC) in series. The formation of a self-assembled protein G layer on an Au substrate and the binding of the antibody and antigen in series were confirmed by SPR spectroscopy. The surface morphology analyses of the self-assembled protein G layer on the Au substrate, monoclonal antibody (Mab) against E. coli O157:H7 which was immobilized on protein G, and bound E. coli O157:H7 extracts on Immobilized Mab against E. coii O157:H7 were performed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The detection limit of the SPR-based immunosensor for E. coli O157:H7 was found to be about $10^4$ cells/ml.

본 논문에서는 단일경계 표면플라즈몬 도파로의 모드특성을 잘 이해하기 위해 복소차분도표를 제안한다. 기존의 표면플라즈몬 모드는 군속도의 부호가 바뀌는 부분을 기준으로 분류되었는데, 여기에서 군속도는 표면플라즈몬 모드 진행방향의 전파상수와 광자 에너지에 대한 분산 관계식에서 접선의 기울기이다. 표면플라즈몬 모드는 진행방향에 대해 수직한 방향의 전파상수도 가지고 있기 때문에 이를 종합적으로 이용하여 모드를 분류하는 것이 필요하다. 복소차분도표는 전파상수의 실수 부와 허수 부의 차이를 변수로 하여 나타낸 도표로서 이를 이용하면 모드 분류가 가능하고 또한 광자 에너지에 따른 종합적인 전파상수의 변화 경향을 살펴보는 것이 용이하다.

수용액에서 자당의 농도 변화를 감지하기 위한 센서개발을 목적으로 하여, 금박막을 센서칩으로 사용한 SPR(surface plasmon resonance) 센서시스템을 구성하였다. 센서칩 제작시 금박막의 특성조건은 SPR 현상에 매우 큰 영향을 미치므로, 센서 제작의 최적화를 위해 특성을 분석하여 두께 약 $545\;{\AA}$, 표면 평균 거칠기 약 $3\;{\AA}$이 되도록 균일하게 제작하였다. 이렇게 제작된 금박막 센서칩의 공명각은 $43.75^{\circ}$ 이었으며, $0{\sim}40\;wt%$ 농도의 자당 수용액을 측정한 결과 기존의 알려진 자당 센서에 비해 빠른 응답특성과 선형적인 공명특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

We propose a systematic method for design of fiber-optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors. We used rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) for analysis of the transmission spectrum, and the (1+1) evolution strategy (ES) was employed as an optimization tool. The simulation results show that the optimization method presented here is very useful in designing fiber-optic SPR sensor for strain and temperature measurement. This algorithm can be extended to another objective function with other weighting factors and optical parameters.
