Resonant coupling of optical radiation to specially designed nanostructures provides multiple pathways for realization of diverse chemo- and biosensors pushing forward development of highly productive and advanced fabrication technologies. Applications direct laser-assisted technologies for production of such functional nanostructures allows to addresses modern demands regarding morphology/composition controllability and fabrication yield. At the same time, fabrication of rationally designed hybrid nanostructures made of dissimilar materials such as typical plasmon-active metals and low-loss semiconductors is still challenging. Here, we summarize our resent efforts in production of such metal-semiconductor nanostructures using two promising laser-assisted fabrication strategies: laser-induced period surface structuring (LIPSS) in functionalizing solutions and laser ablation in liquids (LAL). In particular, LIPSS patterning of monocrystalline Si with a visible-range femtosecond-laser pulses in isopropanol containing precursor noble-metal salts was found to yield in formation of deep-subwavelength nanograting with an extremely short period down to 70 nm and high-aspect-ratio nano-trenches loaded with controllable amount of plasmonic nanoparticles [1]. In its turn, LAL technology with inexpensive nanosecond lasers was used to produce diverse hybrid Au@Si [2], Ag@Si [3] and Au@TiO2 [4] nanoparticles. Certain applications of the produced hybrid nanostructures for advanced optical nanosensing of molecular species and metal ions, light-to-heat conversion and labeling are also discussed [5].
