研究目的
To demonstrate the synthesis of gold nano-earbuds (Au NEBs) with tunable dimensions and aspect ratios, achieving longitudinal surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) beyond 1200 nm, and to analyze the emergence of three plasmonic peaks in these nanostructures.
研究成果
The study successfully synthesized Au NEBs with tunable dimensions and aspect ratios, achieving LSPR beyond 1200 nm. The novel morphology exhibits three plasmonic peaks, attributed to the bulbous ends and high aspect ratio, confirming it as a new class of nanostructure. These findings open avenues for applications in biomedical imaging and photothermal therapy.
研究不足
The synthesis requires precise control over the chemical parameters and the binary surfactant mixture for the formation of Au NEBs. The presence of spherical particles at very low amounts of TA and the formation of irregular structures at seed volumes less than 30 μL are noted limitations.
