研究目的
Investigating the modulation of localized surface plasmon resonances of a silver nanoparticle array upon the presence of MoS2 coatings or underlying thin films for the development of more sensitive plasmonic biosensors.
研究成果
The use of MoS2 highly increases the sensitivity of the plasmonic resonances in AgNPs arrays, making the proposed structures suitable for the development of high-sensitive plasmonic sensors. The sensitivity can be significantly enhanced by adjusting the thickness of MoS2 layers, with potential applications in biosensing and photothermal heating.
研究不足
The study is based on numerical simulations, which may not fully capture all physical phenomena present in experimental setups. The sensitivity performance is dependent on the spectral width of the resonance bands, which may limit the identification of displacement when bands are broad.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Numerical simulations were performed using Finite Element Method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics 4.4 to study the change in absorption spectra of an ordered array of silver nanoparticles AgNPs when attached to glass as well as to glass coated with different layers of MoS

4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The optical properties of silver nanostructures were determined numerically in vacuum within a wavelength domain between 300 nm and 800 nm. The frequency-dependent complex permittivity of silver was described by the Lorentz-Drude model.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The sensitivity of the refraction index (RI) was determined by the change in resonance wavelength of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of AgNPs with the change in the surrounding refractive index of the medium.
