There are many areas of research that benefit from tight focussing of light. We report experimental and computational results of a laser irradiated silica microsphere, 1 μm diameter localised on an SU-8 substrate. A single pulse from an ArF excimer l...

A significant impediment to the use of impedance spectroscopy in bio-sensing is the electrode polarization effect that arises from the movement of free ions to the electrode-solution interface, forming an electrical double layer (EDL). The EDL screen... Read More about A label-free aptamer-based nanogap capacitive biosensor with greatly diminished electrode polarization effects.

Nanogap capacitive biosensor for label-free aptamer-based protein detection (2018)

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy for single molecule detection and biosensing (2017)
Thesis
Marshall, A. R. L. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy for single molecule detection and biosensing. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220864

The aim of this thesis is to design plasmonic nano-gaps capable of detecting materials down to sufficiently low concentrations such that single molecule characteristics are observed. We begin first, by discussing the theory of plasmonics. Then, we as... Read More about Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy for single molecule detection and biosensing.
