Metallic nanostructures exhibit strong interactions with electromagnetic radiation, known as
the localized surface plasmon resonance. In recent years, there is significant interest and …

Noble metal nanoparticles can absorb incident light very efficiently due to their ability to
support localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs), collective oscillations of the free …

We studied the controlled growth of triangular prismatic Au nanoparticles with different
beveled sides for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) applications. First, in a …

We present a bottom-up assembly route for a large-scale organization of plasmonic
nanoparticles (NPs) into three-dimensional (3D) modular assemblies with core/satellite …

Inspired by the concept of living polymerization reaction, we are able to produce silver–gold–
silver nanowires with a precise control over their total length and plasmonic properties by …

Fracture-free and conformal Pd-UiO-66@ ZIF-8 core-shell metal-organic framework material
is synthesized by a surfactant-mediated method. The hierarchical nanoporous material …

Nanorattles are metallic core–shell particles with core and shell separated by a dielectric
spacer. These nanorattles have been identified as a promising class of nanoparticles, due to …

The design and synthesis of plasmonic nanoparticles with Raman-active molecules
embedded inside them are of significant interest for sensing and imaging applications …

Ag nanorods receive intensive attention due to the excellent plasmonic properties. However,
the difficulty in synthesis of monodisperse Ag nanorods with broad aspect ratios has limited …

Transfection is based on nonviral delivery of nucleic acids or proteins into cells. Viral
approaches are being used; nevertheless, their translational capacity is nowadays …
