Abstract
Plasmonic photodetection based on the hot-electron generation in nanostructures is a promising strategy for sub-band detection due to the high conversion efficiencies; however, it is plagued with the high dark current.

Plasmonic photodetection based on the hot-electron generation in nanostructures is a promising strategy for sub-band detection due to the high conversion efficiencies; however, it is plagued with the high dark current. In this paper, we have demonstrated the plasmonic photodetection with dark current suppression to create a Si-based broadband photodetector with enhanced performance in the short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) region. By hybridizing a 3 nm Au layer with the spherical Au nanoparticles (NPs) formed by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) on Si substrate, a well-behaved ITO/Au/Au NPs/n-Si Schottky photodetector with suppressed dark current and enhanced absorption in the SWIR region is obtained. This optimized detector shows a broad detection beyond 1200 nm and a high responsivity of 22.82 mA/W at 1310 nm at −1 V, as well as a low dark current density on the order of 10−5 A/cm2. Such a Si-based plasmon-enhanced detector with desirable performance in dark current will be a promising strategy for realization of the high SNR detector while keeping fabrication costs low.

Abstract
Round, small-sized coverslips were coated for the first time with thin layers of indium tin oxide (ITO, 10–40 nm)/gold (Au, 2–8 nm) and annealed at 550 °C for several hours. The resulting nanostructures on miniaturized substrates were further optimized for the localized surface [...] Read more.
Round, small-sized coverslips were coated for the first time with thin layers of indium tin oxide (ITO, 10–40 nm)/gold (Au, 2–8 nm) and annealed at 550 °C for several hours. The resulting nanostructures on miniaturized substrates were further optimized for the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) chemosensing of a model molecule—1,2-bis-(4-ppyridyl)-ethene (BPE)—with a detection limit of 10−12 M BPE in an aqueous solution. All the fabrication steps of plasmonic-annealed platforms were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Full article

Conductive indium-tin oxide (ITO) and non-conductive glass substrates were successfully modified with embedded gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) formed by controlled thermal annealing at 550 °C for 8 h in a preselected oven. The authors characterized the formation of AuNPs using two microscopic techniques: scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The analytical performances of the nanostructured-glasses were compared regarding biosensing of Hsp70, an ATP-driven molecular chaperone. In this work, the human heat-shock protein (Hsp70), was chosen as a model biomarker of body stress disorders for microwave spectroscopic investigations. It was found that microwave screening at 4 GHz allowed for the first time the detection of 12 ng/µL/cm2 of Hsp70. Full article
