Highly Controlled Silica Coating of PEG-Capped Metal Nanoparticles and Preparation of SERS-Encoded Particles

Abstract

Thiol-modified poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG-SH) has been used to replace standard capping agents from the surfaces of gold nanoparticles with different sizes and shapes. Upon PEG stabilization, the nanoparticles can be transferred into ethanol, where silica can be directly grown on the particle surfaces through the standard Stober process. The obtained silica shells are uniform and homogeneous, and the method allows a high degree of control over shell thickness for any particle size and shape. Additionally, Raman-active molecules can be readily incorporated within the composite nanoparticles during silica growth so that SERS/SERRS-encoded nanoparticles can be fabricated containing a variety of tags, thereby envisaging multiplexing capability.

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.
