Abstract
Detection of molecules is a key issue for many applications. Surface enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) uses arrays of resonant nanoantennas with good quality factors which can be used to locally enhance the illumination of molecules. The technique has proved to be an effective tool to detect small amount of material. However, nanoresonators can detect molecules on a narrow bandwidth so that a set of resonators is necessary to identify a molecule fingerprint. Here, we introduce an alternative paradigm and use low quality factor resonators with large radiative losses (over-coupled resonators). The bandwidth enables to detect all absorption lines between 5 and 10 μm, reproducing the molecular absorption spectrum. Counterintuitively, despite a lower quality factor, the system sensitivity is improved and we report a reflectivity variation as large as one percent per nanometer of molecular layer of PMMA. This paves the way to specific identification of molecules. We illustrate the potential of the technique with the detection of the explosive precursor 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT). There is a fair agreement with electromagnetic simulations and we also introduce an analytic model of the SEIRA signal obtained in the over-coupling regime.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) leads to a largely improved detection of polar molecules, compared to standard infrared absorption. The enhancement principle is based on localized surface plasmon resonances of the substrate, which match the frequency of molecular vibrations in the analyte of interest. Therefore, in practical terms, the SEIRA sensor needs to be tailored to each specific analyte. We review SEIRA sensors based on metal plasmonics for the detection of biomolecules such as DNA, proteins, and lipids. We further focus this review on chemical SEIRA sensors, with potential applications in quality control, as well as on the improvement in sensor geometry that led to the development of multiresonant SEIRA substrates as sensors for multiple analytes. Finally, we give an introduction into the integration of SEIRA sensors with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS).

Abstract
Nanostructured surfaces with designed optical functionalities, such as metasurfaces, allow efficient harvesting of light at the nanoscale, enhancing light-matter interactions for a wide variety of material combinations. Exploiting light-driven matter excitations in these artificial materials opens up a new dimension in the conversion and management of energy at the nanoscale. In this review, we outline the impact, opportunities, applications, and challenges of optical metasurfaces in converting the energy of incoming photons into frequency-shifted photons, phonons, and energetic charge carriers. A myriad of opportunities await for the utilization of the converted energy. Here we cover the most pertinent aspects from a fundamental nanoscopic viewpoint all the way to applications.

Abstract
MicroRNAs play an important role in early development, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell death, and are aberrantly expressed in many types of cancers. To understand their function and diagnose cancer at an early stage, it is crucial to quantitatively detect microRNA without invasive labels. Here, a plasmonic biosensor based on surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) for rapid, label-free, and ultrasensitive detection of miR-155 is reported. This technology leverages metamaterial perfect absorbers stimulating the SEIRA effect to provide up to 1000-fold near-field intensity enhancement over the microRNA fingerprint spectral bands. Additionally, it is discovered that the limit of detection (LOD) of the biosensor can be greatly improved by using tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) as carriers. By using near-field enhancement of SEIRA and specific binding of TDN, the biosensor achieves label-free detection of miR-155 with a high sensitivity of 1.162% pm-1 and an excellent LOD of 100 × 10-15 m. The LOD is about 5000 times lower than that using DNA single strand as probes and about 100 times lower than that of the fluorescence detection method. This work can not only provide a powerful diagnosis tool for the microRNAs detection but also gain new insights into the field of label-free and ultrasensitive SEIRA-based biosensing.

Abstract
Complementary metasurfaces composed of randomly-placed arrays of aligned rods or slits are fabricated out of giant magnetoresistance Ni81Fe19/Au multilayers (MLs), a material whose optical properties change under the application of an external static magnetic field. The two metasurfaces are studied from both the experimental and theoretical viewpoints. The induced magnetic modulation (MM) of both the far-field signal and the resonant near field, at the rod/slit localized surface plasmon frequency, are found to obey the Babinet's principle. Furthermore, the near-field MM is found to be higher than the far-field counterpart. At resonance, both arrays show spots with high values of the magnetic modulated intensity of the electric near field (MM hot-spots). We show that this high magnetic modulation of the near-field intensity is very promising for the future development of high sensitivity molecular sensing platforms in the Mid- and Far-IR, using Magnetic-Modulation of Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption (MM-SEIRA) spectroscopy.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanoantennas are promising sensing platforms for detecting chemical and biological molecules in the infrared region. However, integrating fragile biological molecules such as proteins on plasmonic nanoantennas is an essential requirement in the detection procedure. It is crucial to preserve the structural integrity and functionality of proteins while attaching them. In this study, we attached lactose permease, a large membrane protein, onto plasmonic nanoantennas by means of the nickel-nitrile triacetic acid immobilization technique. We followed the individual steps of the immobilization procedure for different lengths of the nanoantennas. The impact of varying the length of the nanoantennas on the shape of the vibrational signal of the chemical layers and on the protein spectrum was studied. We showed that these large proteins are successfully attached onto the nanoantennas, while the chemical spectra of the immobilization monolayers show a shape deformation which is an effect of the coupling between the vibrational mode and the plasmonic resonance.
