Silver nanowires (AgNWs) serve as plasmonic waveguides for propagating surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), allowing the spatial confinement and transfer light energy over micrometer distance through the structures below sub-diffraction limited diameter. In addition to this, surface plasmon allows us to concentrate light energy in nanometer regions, such as at the nanowire end, leading to a massive enhancement of electromagnetic filed that can be used for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) or fluorescence (SEF) spectroscopy/microscopy.
In this contribution, we will discuss a noble nanoscopic techniques using a combination of SERS/SEF detection and sub-diffraction limit SPPs waveguiding for spectroscopic/microscopic. Specifically, we demonstrate that SPPs launched along a AgNW can remotely excite SERS [1] and SEF [2] in the vicinity of the nanowire surface due to the SPPs wave-guiding effect. The ability to transfer SERS/SEF excitation over several microns will be discussed with respect to single-cell endoscopy, understanding of interaction between anti-cancer drug molecules and cellular components such as DNA for drug delivery systems [3], and surface characterization using tip-enhanced Raman/fluorescence microscopy [4].
