            Abstract : 
We demonstrate a novel localized surface plasmon resonance based sensor that can differentiate a target interaction from interfering interactions. This is accomplished by the simultaneous interrogation of the sensing medium with the multiple surface plasmon modes of the U-shaped gold nanostructure.
