Shape- and Size-Dependent Refractive Index Sensitivity of Gold Nanoparticles

Chen, Huanjun, Kou, Xiaoshan, Yang, Zhi, Ni, Weihai, Wang, Jianfang·2008·Langmuir

Abstract

Gold nanoparticles of different shapes and sizes, including nanospheres, nanocubes, nanobranches, nanorods, and nanobipyramids, were dispersed into water-glycerol mixtures of varying volume ratios to investigate the response of their surface plasmon peaks to the refractive index of the surrounding medium. The refractive index sensitivities and figures of merit were found to be dependent on both the shape and the size of the Au nanoparticles. The index sensitivities generally increase as Au nanoparticles become elongated and their apexes become sharper. Au nanospheres exhibit the smallest refractive index sensitivity of 44 nm/RIU and Au nanobranches exhibit the largest index sensitivity of 703 nm/RIU. Au nanobipyramids possess the largest figures of merit, which increase from 1.7 to 4.5 as the aspect ratio is increased from 1.5 to 4.7.

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.
