dc.description.abstractThis article discusses and documents the basic concepts of, and developments in, the field of optical nanosensors and nanobiosensors. It describes the progression of this field of research from its birth up to the present, with emphasis on the techniques of sensor construction and their application to biological systems. After a brief overview of the techniques for fabricating nanometer-sized optical fibers, we describe the various types of transducer and bioreceptor molecule presently used for nanosensor and nanobiosensor fabrication.
dc.description.sponsorshipOur research is sponsored in part by the LDRD project (advanced nanosensors) as well as the Office of Biological and Environmental Research, US Department of Energy under contract DE-AC05-960R22464 with Lockheed Martin Energy Research. In addition, B. Cullum is supported by an appointment to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Postdoctoral Research Associates Program, administered jointly by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education.
