研究目的
Investigating the expedient paramagnetic properties of surfactant-free plasmonic silicon-based nanoparticles for applications in nanomedicine, particularly for biosensing and bioimaging.
研究成果
Composite silicon-gold nanoparticles with several modalities are synthesized by pulsed laser ablation, showing remarkable plasmonic and paramagnetic properties. These nanoparticles may serve as a novel nanotool for nanomedicine, providing diagnostic, therapeutic, imaging, and sensing capabilities.
研究不足
The study does not explore the exact structure of composite nanoparticles and the presence/absence of gold silicide nanoformulations in detail. Additional studies by XPS/XRD methods are suggested for further investigation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves a 2-step approach based on pulsed laser ablation in liquid method for synthesizing composite silicon-gold nanoparticles.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Silicon nanoparticles are synthesized by laser ablation of a silicon wafer in deionized water, followed by laser ablation of a gold target in the colloidal solution of Si NPs.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser, high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy system, Shimadzu UV-2600 spectrophotometer, and Bruker ELEXSYS E580 EPR spectrometer are used.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process includes laser ablation of targets, structural and chemical composition analysis, optical properties study, and EPR measurements.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The chemical composition is analyzed using EDX, optical properties are studied via spectrophotometry, and paramagnetic properties are investigated through EPR spectroscopy.
