Infrared Reflection Spectroscopy

Infrared spectroscopy has found wide applications in the analysis of biological materials. A more recent development is the use of engineered nanostructures, or plasmonic metasurfaces, as substrates for metasurface-enhanced infrared reflection spectroscopy (MEIRS). Here, we demonstrate that strong field enhancement from plasmonic metasurfaces enables the use of MEIRS as a highly informative analytic technique for real-time monitoring of cells. By exposing live cells cultured on a plasmonic metasurface to chemical compounds, we show that MEIRS can be used as a label-free phenotypic assay for detecting multiple cellular responses to external stimuli: changes in cell morphology, adhesion, lipid composition of the cellular membrane, as well as intracellular signaling. Using a focal plane array detection system, we show that MEIRS also enables spectro-chemical imaging at the single-cell level. The described metasurface-based all-optical sensor opens the way to a scalable, high-throughput spectroscopic assay for live cells.
