One dimensional plasmonic grating is a kind of resonant electromagnetic wave absorber with a characteristic wavelength. This study focusses on one-dimensional plasmonic grating consisting of poly (glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) brushes and CdS quantum dots (CdQDs) fabrication and PGMA chains grafted on a primary substrate in a line array continued by the immobilization of biotin-modified CdQDs. PGMA brush line array (PBLA) of plasmonic grating exhibited an absorptance at 441 nm while at the same time, CdQDs immobilized with PBLA showed characteristic absorbance at 396 nm. The blue-shift from 441 nm matches the absorbance peak of biotin-modified CdQDs resulting in the enhancement of photoluminescence emission of CdQDs. With streptavidin incubation to assemble CdQDs at 50 nM, the significant decrease in grating height resulted in the red-shift of the absorbance peak to 536 nm. Due to the deviation in absorbance, the intensity of the PL emission decreased gradually with the increase in concentration of streptavidin. In addition, our results showed that streptavidin incubation altered the color reflected from the surface due to effective changes in the refractive index of the layer as well. The limit of detection of the grating for streptavidin detection was determined to be 50 nM. Thus, PBLA-CdQD has the potential to act as a highly-sensitive, label-free optical biosensor.
