Enhanced Second-Harmonic Generation from Sequential Capillarity-Assisted Particle Assembly of Hybrid Nanodimers.

Authors:
Flavia Timpu Nicholas R Hendricks Mihail Petrov Songbo Ni Claude Renaut Heiko Wolf Lucio Isa Yuri Kivshar Rachel Grange

Nano Lett 2017 09 9;17(9):5381-5388. Epub 2017 Aug 9.

Optical Nanomaterial Group, Institute for Quantum Electronics, Department of Physics, ETH Zürich , Auguste-Piccard- Hof 1, 8093 Zürich, Switzerland.

We show enhanced second-harmonic generation (SHG) from a hybrid metal-dielectric nanodimer consisting of an inorganic perovskite nanoparticle of barium titanate (BaTiO) coupled to a metallic gold (Au) nanoparticle. BaTiO-Au nanodimers of 100 nm/80 nm sizes are fabricated by sequential capillarity-assisted particle assembly. The BaTiO nanoparticle has a noncentrosymmetric crystalline structure and generates bulk SHG. We use the localized surface plasmon resonance of the gold nanoparticle to enhance the SHG from the BaTiO nanoparticle. We experimentally measure the nonlinear signal from assembled nanodimers and demonstrate an up to 15-fold enhancement compared to a single BaTiO nanoparticle. We further perform numerical simulations of the linear and SHG spectra of the BaTiO-Au nanodimer and show that the gold nanoparticle acts as a nanoantenna at the SHG wavelength.

We investigated the potential of a self-assembled lipid nanocarrier, cubosomes, to improve delivery of incorporated cargo to the brain in vivo in zebrafish. Cubosomes were formulated with the surfactants Pluronic F68 or Pluronic F127 or Tween 80, with the hypothesis that Tween 80 will enhance brain targeting as previously shown for polymeric nanoparticles. The physiochemical properties and the ability of the cubosomes to facilitate delivery of the model drug lissamine rhodamine (RhoB) into the brain was investigated. Read More

Nanomedicine represents a very significant contribution in current cancer treatment; in addition to surgical intervention, radiation and chemotherapeutic agents that unfortunately also kill healthy cells, inducing highly deleterious and often life-threatening side effects in the patient. Of the numerous nanoparticles used against cancer, gold nanoparticles had been developed for therapeutic applications. Inter alia, a large variety of dendrimers, i. Read More

Electronic address:

Gold nanoparticles/polyaniline boronic acid/sodium alginate aqueous nanocomposite ((PABA-SAL)@AuNPs) was fabricated. Aniline boronic acid (ABA) served as reductant of gold salt, all within the SAL solution. While ABA reduced gold salt to its nanoparticles, the ABA monomer was also oxidized to its conducting polymeric form (PABA). Read More

Mikrochim Acta 2021 Mar 6;188(4):112. Epub 2021 Mar 6.

School of Food and Biological Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, 212013, China.

An electrochemical biosensor was prepared for nucleic acid-based hantavirus detection using a Cu-based metal-organic framework (CuMOF) as a signal tag. The CuMOF was synthesized by the solvothermal method and then covalently bonded with signal DNA (sDNA) probes. The Au nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide composite were deposited on the electrode surface by electroreduction as support substrate and was then functionalized with capture DNA (cDNA) probes by self-assembly.

Polymers (Basel) 2021 Feb 12;13(4). Epub 2021 Feb 12.

Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, University of Crete, GR-71409 Heraklion, Crete, Greece.

Metal nanoparticles are used to modify/enhance the properties of a polymer matrix for a broad range of applications in bio-nanotechnology. Here, we study the properties of polymer/gold nanoparticle (NP) nanocomposites through atomistic molecular dynamics, MD, simulations. We probe the structural, conformational and dynamical properties of polymer chains at the vicinity of a gold (Au) NP and a functionalized (core/shell) Au NP, and compare them against the behavior of bulk polyethylene (PE).
