Characterization of nanoporous gold disks for photothermal light harvesting and light-gated molecular release.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nanoporous gold disks (NPGDs) with 400 nm diameter, 75 nm thickness, and 13 nm pores exhibit large specific surface area and effective photothermal light harvesting capability with a conversion efficiency of 56%. A potential application is demonstrated by light-gated, multi-step molecular release of the pre-adsorbed R6G fluorescent dye on arrayed NPGDs.

Laser rapid thermal annealing enables tunable plasmonics in nanoporous gold nanoparticles.
A novel laser rapid thermal annealing (LRTA) technique is reported to tune the plasmonic resonance of disk-shaped nanoporous gold (NPG) nanoparticles for the first time. LRTA alters both the external and internal geometrical parameters of NPG nanoparticles at temperatures significantly lower than the melting temperature of bulk gold or non-porous gold nanoparticles. With increasing annealing la...

We report a simple strategy for the creation of large-area nanoporous hybrid films of silica, carbon, and gold on polyethylene terephthalate via photothermal processing. This method enables the selective heating of light-absorbing thin films on low-temperature substrates using submillisecond light pulses generated by a xenon flash lamp. The film contains gold nanoparticles as the nano-heaters t...
متن کاملModified Photochemical Properties of Mitoxantrone by Plasmonic Photothermal Response of Hollow Gold Nanoshells
Introduction: Mitoxantrone (MX) has been introduced as a photosensitizer drug. However, due to some side effects, the widespread use of this drug has been confronted with some limitations. Hollow gold nanoshells (HGN) have attracted considerable attention due to their interesting photochemical features that can use as nanocarrier. In this paper, the thermal response of MX and the use of this pr...
متن کاملMonolithic NPG nanoparticles with large surface area, tunable plasmonics, and high-density internal hot-spots.
Plasmonic metal nanostructures have shown great potential in sensing, photovoltaics, imaging and biomedicine, principally due to the enhancement of local electric field by light-excited surface plasmons, i.e., collective oscillation of conduction band electrons. Thin films of nanoporous gold have received a great deal of interest due to the unique 3-dimensional bicontinuous nanostructures with ...
