Gold Nanorods for LSPR Biosensing: Synthesis, Coating by Silica, and Bioanalytical Applications

open access: yesBiosensors, 2020
Nanoparticles made of coinage metals are well known to display unique optical properties stemming from the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon, allowing their use as transducers in various biosensing configurations.

Oriented Gold Nanorods and Gold Nanorod Chains within Smectic Liquid Crystal Topological Defects [PDF]

open access: yesACS Nano, 2017
We show that the use of oriented linear arrays of smectic A defects, the so-called smectic oily streaks, enables the orientation of gold nanorods (GNRs) for a large range of GNR diameters, ranging from 7 to 48 nm, and for various ligands. For the small GNRs it enables oriented end-to-end small chains of GNRs when the density is increased from around 2 ...
