- Additional information
- Introduced a novel design of a biosensor based on metallic nanoantenna arrays which enables very highly sensitive detection of molecular resonances from specific analytes. The theory that was developed and presented in the paper was rigorously validated by the experimental and simulation work. The enhancement factor of 10^5 and a limit of detection of 50 zeptomole has been cited widely in leading journals (for example D. He et al, Optics Express 2018, S Sharma et al, Reviews in Physics 2018) as representing the state of the art.
