Gold–polymer hybrid nanoparticles attract wide interest as building blocks for the engineering of photonic materials and plasmonic (active) metamaterials with unique optical properties. In particular, the coupling of the localized surface plasmon resonances of individual metal nanostructures in the presence of nanometric gaps can generate highly enhanced and confined electromagnetic fields, which are frequently exploited for metal‐enhanced light–matter interactions. The optical properties of plasmonic structures can be tuned over a wide range of properties by means of their geometry and the size of the inserted nanoparticles as well as by the degree of order upon assembly into 1D, 2D, or 3D structures. Here, the synthesis of silica‐stabilized gold–poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (SiO2‐Au‐PNIPAM) core–satellite superclusters with a narrow size distribution and their incorporation into ordered self‐organized 3D assemblies are reported. Significant alterations of the plasmon resonance are found for different assembled structures as well as strongly enhanced Raman signatures are observed. In a series of experiments, the origin of the highly enhanced signals can be assigned to the interlock areas of adjacent SiO2‐Au‐PNIPAM core–satellite clusters and their application for highly sensitive nanoparticle‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy is demonstrated. 相似文献

Discontinuous plasmonic‐3D photonic crystal hybrid structures are fabricated in order to evaluate the coupling effect of surface plasmon resonance and the photonic stop band. The nanostructures are prepared by silver sputtering deposition on top of hydrophobic 3D photonic crystals. The localized surface plasmon resonance of the nanostructure has a symbiotic relationship with the 3D photonic stop band, leading to highly tunable characteristics. Fluorescence enhancements of conjugated polymer and quantum dot based on these hybrid structures are studied. The maximum fluorescence enhancement for the conjugated polymer of poly(5‐methoxy‐2‐(3‐sulfopropoxy)‐1,4‐phenylenevinylene) potassium salt by a factor of 87 is achieved as compared with that on a glass substrate due to the enhanced near‐field from the discontinuous plasmonic structures, strong scattering effects from rough metal surface with photonic stop band, and accelerated decay rates from metal‐coupled excited state of the fluorophore. It is demonstrated that the enhancement induced by the hybrid structures has a larger effective distance (optimum thickness ≈130 nm) than conventional plasmonic systems. It is expected that this approach has tremendous potential in the field of sensors, fluorescence‐imaging, and optoelectronic applications. 相似文献

Effective light trapping at the nanoscale is vital for efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) applications. Photonic and plasmonic resonators are the two most promising approaches for this purpose, and the synergetic combination of these two resonators will tail the propagation lengths of incident light along with field enhancements, and thus presents further enhanced light‐trapping activity. Herein, a new hybrid photonic–plasmonic resonator is proposed through sputtering plasmonic Au nanoparticles (NPs) into the 2D photonic TiOx nanocavity. Through facile control of the size of Au NPs, the matching of resonant wavelength of plasmonic Au NPs and photonic nanocavities maximize the light‐trapping intensity and thus further improve the PEC performance. Furthermore, for expanding the PEC applications, after functionalization of Au NPs with aptamer as a biomolecular recognition unit, a PEC aptasensor is also proposed and presents the highest sensitivity for antibiotic detection. 相似文献

Recently, 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have become intriguing materials in the versatile field of photonics and optoelectronics because of their strong light–matter interaction that stems from the atomic layer thickness, broadband optical response, controllable optoelectronic properties, and high nonlinearity, as well as compatibility. Nevertheless, the low optical cross‐section of 2D‐TMDs inhibits the light–matter interaction, resulting in lower quantum yield. Therefore, hybridizing the 2D‐TMDs with plasmonic nanomaterials has become one of the promising strategies to boost the optical absorption of thin 2D‐TMDs. The appeal of plasmonics is based on their capability to localize and enhance the electromagnetic field and increase the optical path length of light by scattering and injecting hot electrons to TMDs. In this regard, recent achievements with respect to hybridization of the plasmonic effect in 2D‐TMDs systems and its augmented optical and optoelectronic properties are reviewed. The phenomenon of plasmon‐enhanced interaction in 2D‐TMDs is briefly described and state‐of‐the‐art hybrid device applications are comprehensively discussed. Finally, an outlook on future applications of these hybrid devices is provided. 相似文献

The assembly of plasmonic metal nanoparticles into hot spot surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanocluster probes is a powerful, yet challenging approach for ultrasensitive biosensing. Scaffolding strategies based on self‐complementary peptides and proteins are of increasing interest for these assemblies, but the electronic and the photonic properties of such hybrid nanoclusters remain difficult to predict and optimize. Here, split‐green fluorescence protein (sGFP) fragments are used as molecular glue and the GFP chromophore is used as a Raman reporter to assemble a variety of gold nanoparticle (AuNP) clusters and explore their plasmonic properties by numerical modeling. It is shown that GFP seeding of plasmonic nanogaps in AuNP/GFP hybrid nanoclusters increases near‐field dipolar couplings between AuNPs and provides SERS enhancement factors above 108. Among the different nanoclusters studied, AuNP/GFP chains allow near‐infrared SERS detection of the GFP chromophore imidazolinone/exocyclic C?C vibrational mode with theoretical enhancement factors of 108–109. For larger AuNP/GFP assemblies, the presence of non‐GFP seeded nanogaps between tightly packed nanoparticles reduces near‐field enhancements at Raman active hot spots, indicating that excessive clustering can decrease SERS amplifications. This study provides rationales to optimize the controlled assembly of hot spot SERS nanoprobes for remote biosensing using Raman reporters that act as molecular glue between plasmonic nanoparticles. 相似文献

In recent years, optical chirality of plasmonic nanostructures has aroused great interest because of innovative fundamental understanding as well as promising potential applications in optics, catalysis and sensing. Herein, state‐of‐the‐art studies on circular dichroism (CD) characteristics of plasmonic nanostructures are summarized. The hybrid of achiral plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) and chiral molecules is explored to generate a new CD response at the plasmon resonance as well as the enhanced CD intensity of chiral molecules in the UV region, owing to the Coulomb static and dynamic dipole interactions between plasmonic NPs and chiral molecules. As for chiral assembly of plasmonic NPs, plasmon–plasmon interactions between the building blocks are found to induce generation of intense CD response at the plasmon resonance. Three‐dimensional periodical arrangement of plasmonic NPs into macroscale chiral metamaterials is further introduced from the perspective of negative refraction and photonic bandgap. A strong CD signal is also discerned in achiral planar plasmonic nanostructures under illumination of circular polarized plane wave at oblique incidence or input vortex beam at normal incidence. Finally perspectives, especially on future investigation of time‐resolved CD responses, are presented. 相似文献

A major challenge in plasmonic hot spot fabrication is to efficiently increase the hot spot volumes on single metal nanoparticles to generate stronger signals in plasmon‐enhanced applications. Here, the synthesis of designer nanoparticles, where plasmonic‐active Au nanodots are selectively deposited onto the edge/tip hot spot regions of Ag nanoparticles, is demonstrated using a two‐step seed‐mediated precision synthesis approach. Such a “hot spots over hot spots” strategy leads to an efficient enhancement of the plasmonic hot spot volumes on single Ag nanoparticles. Through cathodoluminescence hyperspectral imaging of these selective edge gold‐deposited Ag octahedron (SEGSO), the increase in the areas and emission intensities of hot spots on Ag octahedra are directly visualized after Au deposition. Single‐particle surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurements demonstrate 10‐fold and 3‐fold larger SERS enhancement factors of the SEGSO as compared to pure Ag octahedra and non‐selective gold‐deposited Ag octahedra (NSEGSO), respectively. The experimental results corroborate well with theoretical simulations, where the local electromagnetic field enhancement of our SEGSO particles is 15‐fold and 1.3‐fold stronger than pure Ag octahedra and facet‐deposited particles, respectively. The growth mechanisms of such designer nanoparticles are also discussed together with a demonstration of the versatility of this synthetic protocol. 相似文献

Chiral plasmonic nanoassemblies, which exhibit outstanding chiroptical activity in the visible or near‐infrared region, are popular candidates in molecular sensing, polarized nanophotonics, and biomedical applications. Their optical chirality can be modulated by manipulating chemical molecule stimuli or replacing the building blocks. However, instead of irreversible chemical or material changes, real‐time control of optical activity is desired for reversible and noninvasive physical regulating methods, which is a challenging research field. Here, the directionally and reversibly switching optical chirality of magneto‐plasmonic nanoassemblies is demonstrated by the application of an external magnetic field. The gold‐magnetic nanoparticles core–satellite (Au@Fe3O4) nanostructures exhibit chiral activity in the UV–visible range, and the circular dichroism signal is 12 times greater under the magnetic field. Significantly, the chiral signal can be reversed by regulating the direction of the applied magnetic field. The attained magnetic field‐regulated chirality is attributed to the large contributions of the magnetic dipole moments to polarization rotation. This magnetic field‐modulated optical activity may be pivotal for photonic devices, information communication, as well as chiral metamaterials. 相似文献

We review different routes for the generation of nanoporous metallic foams and films exhibiting well‐defined pore size and short‐range order. Dealloying and templating allows the generation of both 2D and 3D structures that promise a plasmonic response determined by material constituents and porosity. Viewed in the context of metamaterials, the ease of fabrication of samples covering macroscopic dimensions is highly promising, and suggests more in‐depth investigations of the plasmonic and photonic properties of this material system for photonic applications. 相似文献

Magnetic‐plasmonic nanoparticles have received considerable attention for widespread applications. These nanoparticles (NPs) exhibiting surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activities are developed due to their potential in bio‐sensing applicable in non‐destructive and sensitive analysis with target‐specific separation. However, it is challenging to synthesize these NPs that simultaneously exhibit low remanence, maximized magnetic content, plasmonic coverage with abundant hotspots, and structural uniformity. Here, a method that involves the conjugation of a magnetic template with gold seeds via chemical binding and seed‐mediated growth is proposed, with the objective of obtaining plasmonic nanostructures with abundant hotspots on a magnetic template. To obtain a clean surface for directly functionalizing ligands and enhancing the Raman intensity, an additional growth step of gold (Au) and/or silver (Ag) atoms is proposed after modifying the Raman molecules on the as‐prepared magnetic‐plasmonic nanoparticles. Importantly, one‐sided silver growth occurred in an environment where gold facets are blocked by Raman molecules; otherwise, the gold growth is layer‐by‐layer. Moreover, simultaneous reduction by gold and silver ions allowed for the formation of a uniform bimetallic layer. The enhancement factor of the nanoparticles with a bimetallic layer is approximately 107. The SERS probes functionalized cyclic peptides are employed for targeted cancer‐cell imaging and separation. 相似文献

Photonic elastomers that can change colors like a chameleon have shown great promise in various applications. However, it still remains a challenge to produce artificial photonic elastomers with desired optical and mechanical properties. Here, the generation of metallosupramolecular polymer‐based photonic elastomers with tunable mechanical strength, angle‐independent structural color, and self‐healing capability is reported. The photonic elastomers are prepared by incorporating isotropically arranged monodispersed SiO2 nanoparticles within a supramolecular elastomeric matrix based on metal coordination interaction between amino‐terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane) and cerium trichloride. The photonic elastomers exhibit angle‐independent structural colors, while Young's modulus and elongation at break of the as‐formed photonic elastomers reach 0.24 MPa and 150%, respectively. The superior elasticity of photonic elastomers enables their chameleon‐skin‐like mechanochromic capability. Moreover, the photonic elastomers are capable of healing scratches or cuts to ensure sustainable optical and mechanical properties, which is crucial to their applications in wearable devices, optical coating, and visualized force sensing. 相似文献

Placing metallic nanoparticles inside cavities, rather than in dimers, greatly improves their plasmonic response. Such particle-in-cavity (PIC) hybrid architectures are shown to produce extremely strong field enhancement at the particle-cavity junctions, arising from the cascaded focusing of large optical cross sections into small gaps. These simply constructed PIC structures produce the strongest field enhancement for coupled nanoparticles, up to 90% stronger than for a dimer. The coupling is found to follow a universal power law with particle-surface separation, both for field enhancements and resonant wavelength shifts. Significantly enhanced Raman signals are experimentally observed for molecules adsorbed in such PIC structures, in quantitive agreement with theoretical calculations. PIC architectures may have important implications in many applications, such as reliable single molecule sensing and light harvesting in plasmonic photovoltaic devices. 相似文献

The enhanced local optical fields at the surface of illuminated metallic nanoparticles and nanostructures are of intense fundamental and technological interest. Here we report a self-consistent measurement of the spatial extent of the fringing field above a plasmonic nanoparticle surface. Bifunctional DNA-based adsorbate molecules are used as nanoscale optical rulers, providing two distinct surface enhanced Raman scattering signals that vary independently in intensity as a function of distance from the nanoparticle surface. While the measurement technique is calibrated on gold nanoshell surfaces with controlled and predictable electromagnetic nanoenvironments, this approach is broadly adaptable to a wide range of plasmonic geometries. 相似文献

2D materials possess many interesting properties, and have shown great application potentials. In this work, the development of humidity‐responsive, 2D plasmonic nanostructures with switchable chromogenic properties upon wetting–dewetting transitions is reported. By exploiting DNA hybridization‐directed anchoring of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on substrates, a series of single‐nanoparticle‐layer (SNL) plasmonic films is fabricated. Due to the collective plasmonic responses in SNL, these ultrathin 2D films display rapid and reversible red‐blue color change upon the wetting–dewetting transition, suggesting that hydration‐induced microscopic plasmonic coupling between AuNPs is replicated in the macroscopic, centimeter‐scale films. It is also found that hydration finely tunes the electric field distribution between AuNPs in the SNL film, based on which responsive surface‐enhanced Raman scattering substrates with spatially homogeneous hot spots are developed. Thus it is expected that DNA‐mediated 2D SNL structures open new avenues for designing miniaturized plasmonic nanodevices with various applications. 相似文献

We report the optical properties of a new type of photonic crystal: a transparent fused silica matrix containing quantum dots—nanoparticles
of another material. In this study, nanoparticles consist of graphite zones several nanometers in size, stabilized by zirconia.
The photonic crystal is prepared by high-temperature annealing (1200°C) of synthetic opal infiltrated with zirconia and a
small amount of carbon. We demonstrate selective reflection of visible light from the surface of the quantum-dot crystal under
broadband illumination. Such crystals are potentially attractive as narrow-band selective filters that would reflect the exciting
light in Raman measurements and might be used to convert short-wavelength broadband radiation to quasi-monochromatic light
in the visible range. 相似文献

Plasmonically coupled graphene structures have shown great promise for sensing applications. Their complex and cumbersome fabrication, however, has prohibited their widespread application and limited their use to rigid, planar surfaces. Here, a plasmonic sensor based on gold nanowire arrays on an elastomer with an added graphene monolayer is introduced. The stretchable plasmonic nanostructures not only significantly enhance the Raman signal from graphene, but can also be used by themselves as a sensor platform for 2D strain sensing. These nanowire arrays on an elastomer are fabricated by template‐stripping based nanotransfer printing, which enables a simple and fast production of stable nanogratings. The ultrasmooth surfaces of such transferred structures facilitate reliable large‐area transfers of graphene monolayers. The resulting coupled graphene‐nanograting construct exhibits ultrahigh sensitivity to applied strain, which can be detected by shifts in the plasmonic‐enhanced Raman spectrum. Furthermore, this sensor enables the detection of adsorbed molecules on nonplanar surfaces through graphene‐assisted surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The simple fabrication of the plasmonic nanowire array platform and the graphene‐coupled devices have the potential to trigger widespread SERS applications and open up new opportunities for high‐sensitivity strain sensing applications. 相似文献

Anisotropic photonic materials with linear dichroism are crucial components in many sensing, imaging, and communication applications. Such materials play an important role as polarizers, filters, and waveplates in photonic devices and circuits. Conventional crystalline materials with optical anisotropy typically show unidirectional linear dichroism over a broad wavelength range. The linear dichroism conversion phenomenon has not been observed in crystalline materials. The investigation of the unique linear dichroism conversion phenomenon in quasi‐1D hexagonal perovskite chalcogenide BaTiS3 is reported. This material shows a record level of optical anisotropy within the visible wavelength range. In contrast to conventional anisotropic optical materials, the linear dichroism polarity in BaTiS3 makes an orthogonal change at an optical wavelength corresponding to the photon energy of 1.78 eV. First‐principles calculations reveal that this anomalous linear dichroism conversion behavior originates from the different selection rules of the parallel energy bands in the BaTiS3 material. Wavelength‐dependent polarized Raman spectroscopy further confirms this phenomenon. Such a material, with linear dichroism conversion properties, could facilitate the sensing and control of the energy and polarization of light, and lead to novel photonic devices such as polarization‐wavelength selective detectors and lasers for multispectral imaging, sensing, and optical communication applications. 相似文献

This work is devoted to the fundamental understanding of the interaction between acoustic vibrations and surface plasmons in metallic nano-objects. The acoustoplasmonic properties of coupled spherical gold nanoparticles and nanodisk trimers are investigated experimentally by optical transmission measurements and resonant Raman scattering experiments. For excitation close to resonance with the localized surface plasmons of the nanodisk trimers, we are able to detect several intense Raman bands generated by the spherical gold nanoparticles. On the basis of both vibrational dynamics calculations and Raman selection rules, the measured Raman bands are assigned to fundamental and overtones of the quadrupolar and breathing vibration modes of the spherical gold nanoparticles. Simulations of the electric near-field intensity maps performed at the Raman probe wavelengths showed strong localization of the optical energy in the vicinity of the nanodisk trimers, thus corroborating the role of the interaction between the acoustic vibrations of the spherical nanoparticles and the surface plasmons of the nanodisk trimers. Acoustic phonons surface enhanced Raman scattering is here demonstrated for the first time for such coupled plasmonic systems. This work paves the way to surface plasmon engineering for sensing the vibrational properties of nanoparticles. 相似文献
