Before concluding this section on the surface-enhanced fluorescence of Langmuir-Blodgett films, two papers that show the expansion of this technique beyond classic dye systems will be discussed. The first of these papers, by Sokolov, Chumanov, and Cotton, was published in 1998 and employed colloidal metal silver films (CMFs) coated on functionalized glass substrates towards the improvement of bioanalytical...
