Purcell radiative rate enhancement of label-free proteins with ultraviolet aluminum plasmonics

Aleksandr Barulin, Prithu Roy, Jean-Benoît Claude +1

The vast majority of proteins are intrinsically fluorescent in the ultraviolet, thanks to the emission from their tryptophan and tyrosine amino-acid constituents. However, the prot…
