Abstract

We report a versatile nanophotonic biosensing platform that enables both colorimetric detection and enhanced Raman spectroscopy detection of molecular binding events. Through the integration of electron-beam lithography, dip-pennanolithography and molecular self-assembly, we demonstrate plasmonic nanostructures which change geometry and plasmonic properties in response to molecularly-mediated nanoparticle binding events. These biologically-active nanostructured surfaces hold considerable potential for use as multiplexed sensor platforms for point-of-care diagnostics, and as scaffolds for a new generation of molecularly dynamic metamaterials. © (2015) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
