Title: Optical Responses of Biomolecules on Regular Metal Plasmonic Nanostructures Author: Martin Šubr Department: Institute of Physics of Charles University Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: prof. RNDr. Marek Procházka, Dr., Institute of Physics of Charles University Abstract: Adsorption of molecules on metal plasmonic nanostructures leads to significant enhancement of many optical processes, such as Raman scattering (surface-enhanced Raman scattering - SERS) or fluorescence (surface-enhanced fluorescence - SEF). Two groups of substrates were tested within this thesis: (i) Silver nanorods prepared by oblique angle vapor deposition, and (ii) silver and gold nanoislands growing on magnetron-sputtered polytetrafluoroethylene film. Step-by- step optimization process was performed on the nanoislands in order to obtain optimum SERS sensitivity and reproducibility. Detailed SERS intensity profiles were obtained using gradient nanostructures with the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) condition varying across the sample and three different excitation wavelengths. It was also found that spectral position and height of the LSPR band can be controlled simultaneously using mixed gold/silver nanoislands. Detailed investigation of polarization- and angular- dependences of anisotropic silver nanorods was...
