Single metal nanoparticles: optical detection, spectroscopy and applications

Open access
Zijlstra, P, Orrit, M·2011·Reports on Progress in Physics

Abstract

Since the first report on the far-field optical detection of single metal nanoparticles in the late 1990s, the field has rapidly developed and new methods and concepts have been introduced. Eliminating averaging over the broad size, shape and crystallinity distributions produced by even the best of current synthesis methods, these techniques have proven extremely useful for gaining a deeper insight into many of the properties of metal nanoparticles. These techniques have already led to the first applications specifically directed at using single particles. In this review we describe far-field optical techniques (both linear and nonlinear) that have sufficient sensitivity to detect single metal particles. We further discuss emerging applications, and emphasize the importance of single-particle detection techniques in their development.

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.
