Biomedical Applications of Shape-Controlled Plasmonic Nanostructures: A Case Study of Hollow Gold Nanospheres for Photothermal Ablation Therapy of Cancer
Abstract
Biomedical applications of plasmonic metal nanostructures represent new and exciting directions of research and development. For instance, photothermal ablation therapy (PTA) based on metal nanomaterials has been actively explored for treating cancer with encouraging success. PTA relies on heat generated from light for destroying cancer cells and thus requires strong optical absorption and high efficiency of photothermal conversion. Desired metal nanostructures for PTA should have strong and tunable SPR, low toxicity, ease of delivery, and convenience for bioconjugation for actively targeting cancer cells. Nanostructures of noble metals, for example, gold and silver, show great promise for PTA applications, including nanoparticles, nanorods, nanoshells, nanocages, and hollow nanospheres. Among these structures, hollow gold nanospheres exhibit a unique combination of small size, spherical shape, and strong, narrow, and tunable SPR. This Perspective highlights the importance of shape control in determining the optical and photothermal properties of metal nanostructures for PTA applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
