Surface-enhanced optical third-harmonic generation in Ag island films

open access: yes, 2005
Surface-enhanced optical third-harmonic generation (THG) is observed in silver island films. The THG intensity from Ag nanoparticles is enhanced by more than two orders of magnitude with respect to the THG intensity from a smooth and homogeneous silver ...

Plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition of nanostructured gold near room temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) process to deposit metallic gold is reported, using the previously reported Me3Au(PMe3) precursor with H-2 plasma as the reactant.

Plasmon-Enhanced Enzymatic Reactions 2:Optimization of Enzyme Activity by Surface Modification of Silver Island Films with Biotin-Poly (Ethylene-glycol)-Amine

open access: yesNano Biomedicine and Engineering, 2012
Surface modification of silver island films (SIFs) was carried out with Biotin-Poly (Ethylene-glycol)-Amine (BEA), which acts as a cross-linker between the silver surface and horse radish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme for optimum plasmon-enhanced enzymatic ...

An investigation into the effect of thickness of titanium dioxide and gold-silver nanoparticle titanium dioxide composite thin-films on photocatalytic activity and photo-induced oxygen production in a sacrificial system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Thin films of titanium dioxide and titanium dioxide with incorporated gold and silver nanoparticles were deposited onto glass microscope slides, steel and titanium foil coupons by two sol–gel dip-coating methods.

Nanostructured Silver Substrates With Stable and Universal SERS Properties: Application to Organic Molecules and Semiconductor Nanoparticles

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2009
Nanostructured silver films have been prepared by thermal deposition on silicon, and their properties as SERS substrates investigated. The optimal conditions of the post-growth annealing of the substrates were established.

Circular Bioassay Platforms for Applications in Microwave-Accelerated Techniques

open access: yesNano Biomedicine and Engineering, 2014
In this paper, we present the design of four different circular bioassay platforms, which are suitable for homogeneous microwave heating, using theoretical calculations (i.e., COMSOLTM multiphysics software).

Submicrometre-thick optical polarising films for800 nm using stretched silver island films

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 1997
An ultra-thin optical polarising film consisting of stretched metal island films has been investigated for commercially available 800 nm laser diodes. The authors have experimentally found that silver is the most useful choice of metal for 800 nm for island films, compared with other metals such as gold, copper, and aluminium.

In-situ evolution and aging of ultrathin sputter deposited silver films

open access: yesApplied Surface Science Advances
Silver (Ag) thin films deposited by magnetron sputtering are widely utilized in optics, antimicrobial coatings, and flexible organic electronics. However, the inherent three-dimensional (3D) island growth of Ag complicates the fabrication of ultrathin ...
