Why is it important?

We tabulate recent findings from other groups providing a quick reference to nanostructure geometry and their optical properties (such as enhancement, LSPR, etc.) as they relate to optical sensing for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy, metal enhanced fluorescence and surface plasmon resonance. We also provide a brief over-view of theory as a reference for those newly looking to apply these nanostructures to a current problem/application
