Plasmonic imaging offers several significant advantages:
- High Sensitivity: The enhanced electromagnetic fields enable the detection of single molecules and nanoparticles. - Super-Resolution: It allows for imaging beyond the diffraction limit, achieving resolutions down to a few nanometers. - Non-Invasive: The technique is non-invasive, making it suitable for live-cell imaging and other biological applications. - Versatility: It can be used with various types of samples and in different environments, from biological tissues to solid-state materials.
