The role of gold nanoparticles’ aspect ratio in plasmon-enhanced luminescence and the singlet oxygen generation rate of Mo6 clusters†
Abstract
Here we present a study on the effect of the aspect ratio (AR) of gold nanoparticles on the emission intensity and singlet oxygen production rate of hexamolybdenum cluster-doped silica particles. It was shown that these parameters can be enhanced gradually up to 6.7- and 13-fold with the AR.
