Multi-structured platinum nanoclusters have been prepared through a one-step aqueous synthetic process by controlling pHs. The included structures are closely packed 3-dimensional (3D) dendrites, loosely packed 3D dendrites, short-order dendritic chains, long-order dendritic chains, flatten nanoclusters and monodisperse nanoparticles. The high resolution transmission electron microscopy images (HRTEM) display that the nanoclusters with a variety of structures are filled with grains of average size ~2.0 nm. The images of the nanoclusters demonstrated that Pt nanoparticles were not fused to each other, but their aggregations were separated by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The as-prepared Pt nanomaterials were studied by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy to identify their surface plasmon resonance (SPR) activities. The structure dependent SPR signals have been observed from 200 nm–800 nm.

ABSTRACTThe favorable lattice matching between Au and NiO crystals made possible the growth of unique cookie-like nanoparticles (25 nm mean diameter) inside a porous SiO2 film after annealing at 700 °C. The unusual aggregates result from the coupling of well distinguishable Au and NiO hemispheres, which respectively face each other through the (100) and (200) lattice planes. The thermal evolution of the Au and NiO nanoparticles structure has been studied by high resolution transmission electron microscopy and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy and correlated with the evolution of the Au surface plasmon resonance peak.

The detection sensitivity of silver nanoparticle (AgNP)-tagged goat immunoglobulin G (gIgG) microarrays was investigated by studying surface plasmon resonance (SPR) images captured in the visible wavelength range with the help of a Kretchmann-configured optical coupling set-up. The functionalization of anti-gIgG molecules on the AgNP surface was studied using transmission electron microscopy, photon correlation measurements and UV–visible absorption spectroscopy. A value of 1.3 × 10 7 M −1 was obtained for the antibody–antigen binding constant by monitoring the binding events at a particular resonance wavelength. The detection limit of this SPR imaging instrument is 6.66 nM of gIgG achieved through signal enhancement by a factor of larger than 4 owing to nanoparticle tagging with the antibody.

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles was carried out using environmentally Beluntas (Pluchea Indica L.) leaf extract to minimize the use of harmful chemicals. Synthesis was carried out with the ratio of AgNO3 solution and the beluntas leaf extract 90 mL : 1 mL. The process of forming silver nanoparticles was studied and monitored by observing the absorption spectrum using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The observations showed the silver nanoparticles that was formed had SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance) absorbance peak values at the wavelength of about 445,5 nm with an absorbance value of 3,437. The absorbance value increased with the increasing reaction time from 1 hour to 168 hours. From the result of testing using PSA, the average size of silver nanoparticles was 109.1 nm which is dispersed between 1,8 nm – 127,3 nm.

Two optical methods, namely surface plasmon resonance imaging and frustrated total internal reflection, are described in the paper in terms of comparing their sensitivity to change of refractive index of a thin boundary layer of an investigated medium. It is shown that, despite the fact that the theoretically calculated sensitivity is higher for the frustrated total internal reflection method, and the fact that usually in practice the surface plasmon resonance method, on the contrary, is considered more sensitive, under the same experimental conditions both methods show a similar result.
