The paper
presented by students from
Department of Materials
Science and Engineering,
Dehui Wan , Yu-Ting Lai, and
Chen-Chieh Yu, instructed by
Prof. King-Fu Lin and Prof.
Hsuen-Li Chen was put on the
journal cover of《Advanced
Functional Materials》.
The image displays a
flexible surface plasmon
resonance (SPR)-based
waveguide sensor prepared by
directly imprinting metal
nanoparticles onto flexible
plates, as presented by H.-L. Chen et al.
on page 1742. The metal nanoparticles
could scatter the evanescent wave and the
guiding mode waves from the SPR-based
waveguide simultaneously. The scattering
signal underwent a distinguishable red-shift
when the target molecules bound to the
particles.
