Planar gold nanoparticle clusters as microscale mirrors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dispersible microscale mirror particles were synthesized by linkage of citrate-coated gold nanoparticles and 3-aminopropylsilyl-modified Ca2Nb3O10 perovskite nanoplates. The mirror particles reflect 14-19% of light in the 500-800 nm wavelength interval with retention of polarization. Due to their directional reflection properties, laser-irradiated micromirror dispersions in solvents exhibit Brownian motion-driven multicolor blinking behavior.

Electrostatically bonded SiO2.Au nanoparticle clusters form by reaction of 3-aminopropylsilane-modified SiO2 spheres (470 nm) with citrate-coated gold nanoparticles (9.7 nm) in water. Reaction of the clusters with 0.01 M KBr or HCl solution induces desorption of the gold nanoparticles within minutes. Reaction of the clusters with alkanethiols CnH2n+1SH (n = 2-18) at 80 degrees C causes the gold...
متن کاملEnhancing nanoparticle electrodynamics with gold nanoplate mirrors.
Mirrors and optical cavities can modify and enhance matter-radiation interactions. Here we report that chemically synthesized Au nanoplates can serve as micrometer-size mirrors that enhance electrodynamic interactions. Because of their plasmonic properties, the Au nanoplates enhance the brightness of scattered light from Ag nanoparticles near the nanoplate surface in dark-field microscopy. More...
متن کاملOptically trapped gold nanoparticle enables listening at the microscale.
We explore a new application of optical tweezers for ultrasensitive detection of sound waves in liquid media. Position tracking of a single gold nanoparticle confined in a three-dimensional optical trap is used to readout acoustic vibrations at a sound power level down to -60 dB, causing a ∼90 μeV increase in kinetic energy of the nanoparticle. The unprecedented sensitivity of such a nanoear ...
متن کاملConductive gold nanoparticle mirrors at liquid/liquid interfaces.
Gold nanoparticle (Au NP) mirrors, which exhibit both high reflectance and electrical conductance, were self-assembled at a [heptane + 1,2-dichloroethane]/water liquid/liquid interface. The highest reflectance, as observed experimentally and confirmed by finite difference time domain calculations, occurred for Au NP films consisting of 60 nm diameter NPs and approximate monolayer surface covera...
متن کاملNanoparticle-enhanced diffraction gratings for ultrasensitive surface plasmon biosensing.
Ultrasensitive surface bioaffinity sensors are created by the adsorption of gold nanoparticles onto gold diffraction gratings. An enhanced diffraction obtained in a surface plasmon resonance geometry is observed due to the optical coupling of the planar surface plasmons in the grating to the localized surface plasmons in the gold nanoparticles. As a first example, these nanoparticle grating bio...
