Figure 1

(a), Schematic of gold nanoparticle (diameter d = 80 nm) deposited upon lipid-alkanethiol hybrid bilayer on a planar gold surface, in solution. Lipids are POPC:DOTAP and SAM is octadecanethiol. (b), Wide-field scattering image of gold nanoparticles on lipid hybrid layer. (c), Reproducible scattering spectra of the gap plasmon resonance from individual gold particles (shown in inset) on the hybrid lipid layer.
