Plasmonic nano-antenna arrays for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy and other applications

On sub-wavelength scales, photon-matter interactions are limited by diffraction. Electromagnetic radiation propagating in free space - or far-field radiation - can be coupled into the surface plasmonpolaritons of nanostructured metallic surfaces in order to overcome this limitation. The distribution...
