We introduce the refractiveindex. info database, a comprehensive open-source repository
containing optical constants for a wide array of materials, and describe in detail the …

Organized assemblies of metal nanoparticles exhibit unique optical properties and can be
used as platforms for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) to detect small amounts …

Template-assisted colloidal self-assembly has gained significant attention due to its
flexibility and versatility. By precisely controlling the shape of the template, it is possible to …

Rapid detection of uremic toxins is crucial due to their severe health risks, including
oxidative stress, inflammation, neurotoxicity, cardiovascular complications, and progression …

Nanoparticle-on-mirror (NPoM) configurations have demonstrated enormous enhancements
toward Raman scattering due to a highly confined and amplified electromagnetic field within …

Biological and chemical (BCh) sensing relying on the self-assembly of block copolymers
(BCPs) has become ubiquitous in addressing a wide range of challenges across diverse …

In this study, a core–shell structured bimetallic nano-cube, Au@ Ag NCs, was prepared by
seed-mediated growth procedure. The array structure of Au@ Ag NCs was achieved at the …

Plasmonic metal nanostructure prepared by photolithography technology can be used as a
uniform and stable substrate with high SERS activity. However, there is only limited research …
