| Fluorescence can be enhanced for a fluorophore localized near a surface of metal through coupling of a fluorophore with radiating metal plasmon. Such enhancement is dependent on particle size and shape, distance from fluorophore to the surface of metal, excitation and emission wavelengths of fluorophore, etc. When the metal particles are coupled each other, the enhancement effect becomes more obvious. This principle is utilized in biological detection including DNA/RNA, protein, and carbohydrate to improve the detection sensitivity. |
