Biomedical Applications of Plasmon Resonant Metal Nanoparticles
Abstract
The strong optical absorption and scattering of noble metal nanoparticles is due to an effect called localized surface plasmon resonance, which enables the development of novel biomedical applications. The resonant extinction, which can be tuned to the near-infrared, allows the nanoparticles to act as molecular contrast agents in a spectral region where tissue is relatively transparent. The localized heating due to resonant absorption, also tunable into the near-infrared, enables new thermal ablation therapies and drug delivery mechanisms. The sensitivity of these resonances to their environment leads to simple affinity sensors for the detection of low-level molecular analytes. Coupled with their general lack of toxicity, these applications suggest that noble metal nanoparticles are a highly promising class of nanomaterials for new biomedical 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.
