  • The applications cover a great number of fields such as plasmonic devices [5,6,7,8], plasmonic biosensing [9,10,11,12,13,14], plasmonic photocatalysis [15,16,17,18,19], plasmonic photovoltaics [20,21,22,23], surfaceenhanced Raman scattering (SERS) [24,25,26,27,28,29] and its derivatives as the photo-induced enhanced Raman spectroscopy [30,31,32,33,34,35], SERS effect induced by high pressure [36] and the shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy [37,38,39,40,41], other surface-enhanced spectroscopies, such as sum frequency generation (SFG) [42,43] and second harmonic generation (SHG) [44,45]

  • The first part of the Issue is devoted to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy [46,47]

Summary

Introduction

Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. Nanoplasmonics is a research topic that takes advantage of the light coupling to electrons in metals, and can break the diffraction limit for light confinement into subwavelength zones allowing strong field enhancements [1,2,3,4]. In the past two decades, a very significant explosion of this research topic and its applications has occurred.
