Enhancing Evanescent Wave Coupling of Near-Surface Waveguides with Plasmonic Nanoparticles

Evanescent field excitation is a powerful means to achieve a high surface-to-bulk signal ratio for bioimaging and sensing applications. However, standard evanescent wave techniques such as TIRF and SNOM require complex microscopy setups. Additionally, the precise positioning of the source relative t...
