Cover Story: Fascinating optical properties of nano-metals, due to excitation of Surface Plasmon (SP) modes, have been applied in different fields. Label-free biological and chemical sensing is the most relevant for health, environmental and food safety fields. Engineering the spectral features by tuning geometric parameters of metal nanostructures, namely shape, size and distances among them, is a key route for improving the sensing performance of plasmonic sensors.  In the paper, a cost-effective nanofabrication technique, based on the self-assembly of a colloidal mask, is investigated. A fine tuning of mask geometrical features is reflected in a variety of plasmonic nanostructures with different functional abilities owing to a different distribution of the enhanced local field. A specific sensing application of interest in the agrifood sector is demonstrated. View this paper
