The unique optical properties of gold nanoflowers
Gold nanoparticles boast unique optical properties. They are used in a variety of fields, including spectroscopy and the healthcare industry. To fully harness this potential, our team of chemical engineers has developed nanoflowers with outstanding plasmon response.
A powerful innovation
Because of their flower-like shape, these nanomaterials boast outstanding plasmon response, far surpassing that of other types of nanomaterial. This makes them highly prized for a number of applications, especially in medicine and biomedical research. The flower shape developed by our teams results in a plasmon response 160 times greater (in SERS) than other forms of gold nanoparticles (spheres, nanorods, nanostars, etc.).
Nanoflowers excel in their ability to interact with light. This is most useful in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The structure of SON’s nanoparticles results in outstanding optical properties. Nanoflowers boast significantly improved optical performance over traditional nanoparticles.
This improved performance is due to the special shape of the nanoparticles. The flower-shaped structure produces more intense plasmon resonance. This distinctive characteristic creates a host of new possibilities in biomolecular detection and medical imaging.
Nanoflowers hold considerable potential as a means of designing new medical diagnostic tools.
As with all its products, SON’s nanoparticles are guaranteed to be highly characterised and perfectly reproducible.
