چکیده

Hollow spherical gold nanoparticle superstructures with tunable diameters (∼40 nm, ∼70 nm and ∼150 nm) and visible to near-infrared surface plasmon resonances (545 nm, 670 nm, and 740 nm) are prepared using a single peptide conjugate, C6-AA-PEPAu, as the structure-directing agent. Computational models are developed to understand their optical properties.

Peptide-directed synthesis and assembly of hollow spherical CoPt nanoparticle superstructures.

Controlling the directed assembly of nanoparticles into welldefined nanoparticle superstructures is a significant challenge, and our goal is to develop a general methodology to address this issue. The success and broad applicability of a particular nanoparticle-assembly methodology should be assessed according to the following important criteria: 1) diverse structural scope, 2) ability to tune ...

Tunable Plasmonic Nanoparticles Based on Prolate Spheroids

Metallic nanoparticles can exhibit very large optical extinction in the visible spectrum due to localized surface plasmon resonance. Spherical plasmonic nanoparticles have been the subject of numerous studies in recent years due to the fact that the scattering response of spheres can be analytically evaluated using Mie theory. However a major disadvantage of metallic spherical nanoparticles is ...

ساخت و ویژگی‌یابی نانوپوسته های طلا برای کاربردهای پزشکی

Gold nanoshells are a new type of nanoparticles including dielectric cores with a continuous thin layer of gold. By varying the core diameter, shell thickness, and the ratio of these parameters, the optical properties of gold nanoshells can be tuned to have maximum absorption in the visible and near infrared spectrum range. The purpose of this research was to synthesize gold coated SiO2 nanos...

One-dimensional coupling of gold nanoparticle plasmons in self-assembled ring superstructures.

Plasmon coupling in ordered metal nanoparticle assemblies leads to tunable collective surface plasmon resonances that strongly depend on the interparticle distance. Here we report on the surface plasmon scattering of polystyrene-functionalized 40 nm gold nanoparticles self-assembled into close-packed rings. Using single particle dark-field scattering spectroscopy, we observed strong near-field ...

Tunability of the refractive index of gold nanoparticle dispersions.

Alkanethiol-capped gold nanoparticles dispersed in n-dodecane were studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry and were modeled using Mie scattering theory. The refractive index in the visible and near-infrared depended on the volume fraction of gold nanoparticles, in good agreement with the theoretical expectation that such dispersed plasmonic nanoparticles can act as low or tunable refractive index...
