    Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) occurs when light interacts with conductive nanoparticles or surfaces, causing the conduction electrons to resonantly oscillate. This phenomenon is sensitive to changes near the conductive surface/interface and is used in various sensing applications. SPR involves surface plasmon polaritons, non-radiative electromagnetic waves that propagate parallel to the interface between a conductive and dielectric material. For SPR to occur, the real part of the conductive material's dielectric function must be negative and greater than the adjacent dielectric. Localized SPR specifically refers to collective electron oscillations confined to metallic nanoparticles under light excitation, producing enhanced localized near-fields and far-field scattering at the particle's resonance wavelength.

    Surface Plasmon Resonance of Nanoparticles

    Principal of SPR
     Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) is the
    resonant oscillation of conduction electrons at
    the interface between negative and positive
    permittivity material stimulated by incident
    light. SPR is the basis of many standard tools
    for measuring adsorption of material onto
    planar metal (typically gold or silver) surfaces
    or onto the surface of nanoparticles. It is the
    fundamental principle behind many color
    based biosensor applications, different lab-on-a-
    chip sensors and diatom photosynthesis.
    Surface Plasmon resonance (SPR)

    Explanation
    2
    The surface plasmon polariton is a non-
    radiative electromagnetic surface wave that
    propagates in a direction parallel to the
    negative permittivity/dielectric material
    interface. Since the wave is on the boundary of
    the conductor and the external medium (air,
    water or vacuum for example), these
    oscillations are very sensitive to any change of
    this boundary, such as the adsorption of
    molecules to the conducting surface.
    To describe the existence and properties of
    surface Plasmon polaritons, one can choose
    various models (quantum theory, Drude
    model, etc.).
    The simplest way to approach the problem is
    to treat each material as a homogeneous
    continuum, described by a frequency-
    dependent relative permittivity between the
    external medium and the surface. This
    3
    quantity, hereafter referred to as the materials'
    "dielectric function", is the complex
    permittivity. In order for the terms that
    describe the electronic surface plasmonto exist,
    the real part of the dielectric constant of the
    conductor must be negative and its magnitude
    must be greater than that of the dielectric.This
    condition is met in the infrared-visible
    wavelength region for air/metal and
    water/metal interfaces (where the real
    dielectric constant of a metal is negative and
    that of air or water is positive).

    Localized Surface Plasmon Resonances :


    Localized surface plasmon resonances
    ( LSPRs) are collective electron charge
    oscillations in metallic nanoparticles that are
    excited by light. They exhibit enhanced near-
    4
    field amplitude at the resonance wavelength.
    This field is highly localized at the nanoparticle
    and decays rapidly away from the
    nanoparticle/dieletric interface into the
    dielectric background, though far-field
    scattering by the particle is also enhanced by
    the resonance. Light intensity enhancement is a
    very important aspect of LSPRs and
    localization means the LSPR has very high
    spatial resolution (subwavelength), limited only
    by the size of nanoparticles. Because of the
    enhanced field amplitude, effects that depend
    on the amplitude such as magneto-optical
    effect are also enhanced by LSPRs.
