description | An optical fiber localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) sensor was proposed and experimentally demonstrated to detect Hg<sup>2+</sup> ions by functionalizing the optical fiber surface with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and chitosan (CS)/poly acrylic acid (PAA) bilayers. A flame-brushing technology was proposed to post-process the polydimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride(PDDA)-templated nanoparticles, avoiding the aggregation of AuNPs and achieving well-dispersed AuNPs arrays. LSPR stimulated by the AuNPs is sensitive to changes in the refractive index induced by Hg<sup>2+</sup> ions absorption on the CS/PAA bilayers. Experimental results demonstrated that the LSPR peak wavelength linearly shifts with the concentrations of Hg<sup>2+</sup> ions from 1 to 30 μM with a sensitivity of around 0.51 nm/ppm. The sensor also exhibits good specificity and longtime stability. |
