Abstract

Gold nanoparticles-based sensors received ample attention in medical and engineering field due to its tunable physical properties like optical, electronic, and surface plasmon resonance. Variable morphology with a plethora of properties makes gold nanoparticles as an ideal candidacy for developing sensors. The inert character and its physical properties make gold-based sensors an ideal option for medical applications and the recent COVID-19 and pregnancy test kits are mostly composed of gold nanoparticles. Herein, in this chapter we will discuss the advancement and future perspectives of gold nanoparticle-based sensors and contribution in current science field.
