  2. 1. Nanoplasmonic Alloy Hydrogen Sensors

    Author : Ferry Nugroho; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; indirect nanoplasmonic sensing; plasmonic sensors; hydrogen sensors; polymers; fiber optics; nanofabrication; localized surface plasmon resonance; alloy nanoparticles; carbon capture and storage; sensors; palladium;

    Abstract : The hydrogen economy proposes hydrogen gas as the main energy carrier thanks to its high energy density and the possibility to produce it in a sustainable way without CO2 emission. However, the wide flammability range of hydrogen-air mixtures dictates that hydrogen sensors will be a mandatory accessory to any appliance or vehicle fueled by hydrogen. READ MORE

  5. 3. Plasmonic Nanospectrocopy of Individual Nanoparticles - Studies of Metal-Hydrogen Interactions and Catalysis

    Author : Svetlana Alekseeva; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grain boundary; metal-hydrogen interactions; plasmonic sensors; single particle spectroscopy; palladium nanoparticles and nanocrystals; localized surface plasmon resonance; hole-mask colloidal lithography; nanocatalysts; shrinking-hole colloidal lithography; plasmonic nanospectroscopy; dark field scattering spectroscopy; nanoscale effects;

    Abstract : Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is the phenomenon of collective oscillation of conduction electrons in metal nanoparticles smaller than the wavelength of light used for the excitation. Plasmonic metal nanoparticles are able to confine light to extremely small volumes around them, i.e. below the diffraction limit. READ MORE

  6. 4. Novel Functionalized Nanopores for Plasmonic Sensing

    Author : Bita Malekian; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; extinction spectra; nanopores; proteins; nanocaves; nanowells; surface plasmon resonance; nuclear pore complex; colloidal lithography; nanoplasmonic sensor; label-free sensing; electron beam lithography; plasmonic nanostructures;

    Abstract : Nanoplasmonic sensors offer a label-free platform for real-time monitoring of biomolecular interactions by tracking changes in refractive index through optical spectroscopy. However, other surface sensitive techniques such as conventional surface plasmon resonance offer similar capabilities with equal or even better resolution in terms of surface coverage. READ MORE

  7. 5. 3D-Printing of Fluorinated Polymer-based Materials for Plasmonic Sensing

    Author : Ida Östergren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D-printing; polymer nanocomposite; hydrogen sensing; plasmonic nanoparticles; Teflon AF; fused deposition modeling;

    Abstract : Hydrogen attracts growing interest as a versatile energy carrier, serving as a fuel for cars, a heat source, or a reagent for chemical synthesis. At the same time, the demand for accurate and selective hydrogen sensors is increasing because of both safety concerns and the need for process monitoring. READ MORE
