The bifunctional possibilities of Tm,Yb:GdVO4@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles for temperature sensing by using the near-infrared (NIR)-excited upconversion emissions in the first biological window, and biolabeling through the visible emissions they generate, were investigated. The two emission lines located at 700 and 800 nm, that arise from the thermally coupled 3F2,3 and 3H4 energy levels of Tm3+, were used to develop a luminescent thermometer, operating through the Fluorescence Intensity Ratio (FIR) technique, with a very high thermal relative sensitivity. Moreover, since the inert shell surrounding the luminescent active core allows for dispersal of the nanoparticles in water and biological compatible fluids, we investigated the penetration depth that can be realized in biological tissues with their emissions in the NIR range, achieving a value of 0.8 mm when excited at powers of 50 mW. After their internalization in HeLa cells, a low toxicity was observed and the potentiality for biolabelling in the visible range was demonstrated, which facilitated the identification of the location of the nanoparticles inside the cells, and the temperature determination.

This paper presents a wet-based self-assembly process for nano-fabricating 1-D arrays of spherical nanoparticles and/or gold-nanoshells with controllable inter-particle distance for near infrared optical communications and for plasmon polariton waveguides featured with the lateral mode size below the optical diffraction limit. The process entails two main procedures. First, the SiO2 nanoparticle colloidal solution was restricted to flow through the gap between the patterned substrate and the cover slip, and the particles, trapped in the patterned, recessed regions, self-assembled to form closely arranged SiO2 particle arrays. These SiO2 particle arrays then acted as a template with which SiO2@Au nanoshell particle arrays of interest with desirable interparticle distance were obtained by repeating the above procedure with SiO2@Au dispersed solution. The needed high quality SiO2@Au core-shell nanoparticles with tunable surface plasma resonance also were synthesized in our laboratory using the seed-and-grow method. Results show that, with this method, the interparticle distance of the nanoshell particle arrays can be controlled by a proper selection of the patterned groove and the sizes of SiO2 and SiO2@Au nanoshell particles. As demonstrated by experiment, the method is general and can be applied to obtain nanoparticle particle arrays of other materials with controllable distance.

Plasmonic core-shell nanoparticles, i.e. gold can improve the efficiency of Dye-sensitized Solar Cell by increase the light harvesting due to the strong near-field effect LSPR (Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance). To achieve maximum enhancement, the morphology of core-shell need to be optimized with coated either by insulator such as semiconductor, i.e. TiO2. In this paper, morphology of Au@TiO2 core-shell precisely control by various TiO2 volume and systematically study its influence on the plasmonic enhancement effect. A gold solution was prepared using Turkevich method. The crystal structure of the powders was determined by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The optical properties were measured by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy using UV-Vis Lambda 750. The photocurrent action spectra or IPCE in visible light spectrum was obtained by adjusting wavelength of incident light, i.e. series connection of halogen lamp and monochromator. UV-Vis absorption spectra of core–shell showed the position of the surface plasmon Au band in the range of 500–550 nm. According to UV-Vis characterization, all samples studied show weak surface plasmon resonance response (~520 to 550 nm) as indicative of the thick TiO2 shells for individual core-shell [email protected] Surface Plasmon Resonances of Au@TiO2 Core-shell Nanoparticles on the DSSC (Dye Sensitized Solar Cells) Performance
