Spatial control of chemical processes on nanostructures through nano-localized water heating

It is generally believed that rapid dissipation means that spatially precise heating is not feasible via thermoplasmonic means. Here, the authors induce highly localized heating around plasmonic nanostructures by pulsed laser irradiation, which effects chemical modification of surface bound molecule...
