Underlying Subwavelength Aperture Architecture Drives the Optical Properties of Microcavity Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors.

Microcavity surface plasmon resonance sensors (MSPRSs) develop out of the classic surface plasmon resonance technologies and aim at producing novel lab-on-a-chip devices. MSPRSs generate a series of spectral resonances sensitive to minute changes in the refractive index. Related sensitivity studies and biosensing applications are published elsewhere.
