Construction of nanoantennas on the bacterial outer membrane

Abstract

We demonstrate a simple manipulation of gold nanoparticles that creates a structure-dependent nanometer-scale antenna on the surface of bacteria. Our studies illuminate the concept of the “effective use of light” based on the absorption and emission of light by antennas formed on bacteria.
