Single-Step Fabrication of Resonant Silicon–Gold Hybrid Nanoparticles for Efficient Optical Heating and Nanothermometry in Cells

“…For this, a sucrose densitygradient centrifugation approach was used, which involves the creation of a density gradient using different sucrose solutions in a centrifugal tube. 11,24 A photograph with different fractions of Si NPs is shown in Figure S3. The obtained size-separated fractions of Si NPs inside the sucrose layers were washed with water to remove residual sucrose.…”

“…Resonant dielectric Si NPs were fabricated using the laser ablation in liquid (LAL) method. 10,11,22 This approach is environmentally friendly due to the absence of toxic chemical reagents; it is also straightforward and can be scaled for mass production. 23 Moreover, this method allows control over the shape, size, and morphology of the fabricated NPs by varying the irradiation laser parameters.…”

“…with this method for heating purposes, they should be additionally size-separated (e.g., using a density gradient), and further, the fraction of NPs with required sizes should be extracted. 11 This limitation can be, however, overcome by the integration of Si NPs with plasmonic nanostructures. Such hybrid structures have serious advantages over both plasmonic and resonant dielectric materials.…”

“…This limitation can be, however, overcome by the integration of Si NPs with plasmonic nanostructures. Such hybrid structures have serious advantages over both plasmonic and resonant dielectric materials . For instance, Mie-resonant NPs localize electromagnetic energy within the NP material, which results in a highly enhanced light–matter interaction and temperature-dependent Raman response .…”

Synthesis and characterization of ZnBTC-based MOFs: effect of solvents and salt

“…Currently, various materials have been intensively studied in materials science, such as inorganic nanoparticles [1][2][3], molecular crystals [4][5][6], COF (covalent organic framework) [7,8]. Applications for these materials include electronics [9], cancer treatment [10], catalysis [11], etc.…”
