Both surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and its counterpart, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy, have been accepted as important means for carrying out not only ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have demonstrated that stretching shape-memory polymers embedded with clusters of gold nanoparticles alters their plasmon-coupling, giving rise to desirable optical ...

The basic working principle of colorimetric sensing is colorimetry, which is a visible change in color that results from a chemical interaction between the sensing/detecting material and the target ...

Why can't plasmons achieve quality factors as high as dielectrics?""Because metals heat up easily—they're inherently lossy."This exchange is almost ...

Silicate glass is a commonly used glass found in most households, in drinking glasses or windowpanes for example. The integration of gold nanoparticles (NPs) in silicate glass has been used in art and ...
