Hydride formation in single Palladium and Magnesium nanoparticles studied by nanoplasmonic dark field scattering spectroscopy

Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2011

Scrutinizing functional nanosystems and relating details in their size, chemistry, and geometry to functionality remains a significant experimental challenge. Following the concept of indirect nanoplasmonic sensing (INPS), the exploitation of truncated Au nanocones with functionalized tips, nanofabricated in a one step, are used as single nanoplasmonic sensors for dark-field scattering spectroscopy measurements of the hydride formation Au in single Pd and Mg nanoparticles.
