Gold and silver nanostructures (such as Au nanorods and Ag nanoplates) exhibit strong and tunable surface plasmon resonance in the near-infrared region (NIR). Under a certain NIR laser irradiation, noble metal nanostructrues achieve a high photo-thermal effect, which would be useful in the therapy. In this work, Au nanorods with longitude surface plasmon resonance (SPRL) shifting in the region of 650 ~1100 nm were synthesized by a seed method. Ag nanoplates and nanocubes with SPR located in the region of 650~850 nm were produced by a hydrothermal method. Through adjusting laser power and irradiating time, the photo-thermal conversions of these nanostructures were studied under NIR laser irradiation. Under low power laser (808 nm, <1W) irradiation, the shape of the Au nanorods are stable and the temperature of colloid increase from room temperature to ~57°C. However, Au nanorods undergo deformation from rod to spherical particle under irradiation of high power (808 nm laser; 6W; 1064nm laser, 7W), resulting in the disappearance of SPRL. Morphology evolutions and photo-thermal conversion of Ag nanostructures were also studied. Ag nanostructures have a lower photo-thermal conversion compared with that of Au nanorods colloid. Snipping and dendrite can be observed for Ag nanoplates after irradiating, while Ag nanocubes have no obvious shape change.

In this work, a convenient and efficient procedure to control the morphologies of Au nanocrystals has been reported. The Au nanospheres are generated in polyvinyl-pyrrolidone/ethanol glycol system through a thermal chemical method. However, by adding a small amount of K2CO3 which influences the growth rate of various facets during the crystal growth, Au nanoplates with broad surface plasmon resonance band in 500–800 nm can be obtained.
