Infrared vibrational spectroscopy is sensitive to characteristic molecule absorption bands, yielding a "fingerprint" spectrum of the molecules involved. The sensitivity of infrared spectroscopy has been increased by several orders of magnitude with optical antennas [1-3]. Arrays of hexagonal sorted triangular metallic infrared antennas created by Nanosphere lithography (NSL) have already been shown to exhibit IR resonances [4].

Our goal is the systematic variation of the NSL fabrication parameters in order to tune the antenna resonance over the whole mid-IR spectrum. We fabricate antenna arrays on different IR-transparent substrates and vary the particles lateral size and height. Using a Fourier-Transform-Infrared-Microscope (FTIR) we determine the plasmon resonance position of each sample. Applications of those structures to surface enhanced IR-Spectroscopy (SEIRA) will be discussed.
