Fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures for single-molecule optical-trapping

利用电磁场模拟方法，得到了能稳定捕获布朗分子和纳米粒子的等离子体纳米结构。建议的结构制造和使用新开发的近场显微镜的光局域化的性能进行了评估。沿着我的研究方案，定量地证明了等离子体纳米结构与传统方法相比显着提高了捕获性能。

The plasmonic nanostructures for stable optical trapping of Brownian molecules and nanoparticles were obtained with electromagnetic simulation. The suggested structures were fabricated and their properties of light localization were assessed using a newly developed near-field microscope. Along my research proposal, it was quantitatively demonstrated that the plasmonic nanostructures significantly improves the trapping performance compared with conventional methods.
