Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors A Materials Guide to Design, Characterization, Optimization, and Usage

This significantly extended second edition addresses the important physical phenomenon of Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) or Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPP) in thin metal films, a phenomenon which is exploited in the design of a large variety of physico-chemical optical sensors. In this treatment,...
