It has gathered interest since its discovery due to the benefits it provides when compared with photonics and electronics. It owes its popularity to the tremendous number of applications it serves for. In this paper, we review how plasmonic nanoparticles can be utilized in applications such as localized surface plasmon resonance based biosensing and enhancing performance of photodetectors. © 2013 SPIE.EnglishBiosensorLSPRMSMPhotodetectorPlasmonicsLight-matter interactionsLocalized surface plasmon resonanceLSPRMetallic nanostructureMSMNano-biosensorsPlasmonic nanoparticlePlasmonicsBiosensorsNanoparticlesPhotodetectorsPhotonsSurface plasmon resonancePlasmonsConference Paper10.1117/12.2012439
