Electrostatic alignment of gold nanorod arrays in polymer

Gold nanorod solutions absorb light strongly at specific wavelengths, due to plasmon resonances. The wavelength of peak absorption shifts depending on the refractive index of the solvent, which makes them ideal for optical biosensors. However, in solution multiple resonances are present because the...
