Abstract
Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) is a powerful technique for chemical and biological sensing experiments. LSPR is responsible for the electromagnetic field enhancement that leads to surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and other surface-enhanced spectroscopic processes [1].
