Seeded growth of ultrathin gold nanoshells using polymer additives and microwave radiation
Abstract Nanoshells made of a silica core and a gold shell possess an optical response that is sensitive to nanometer-scale variations in shell thickness. The exponential red shift of the plasmon resonance with decreasing shell thickness makes ultrathin nanoshells (less than 10 nm) particularly inte...
