This paper is devoted to present the results of creation of gold nanoparticles on titanium surface. We focused on the problem how to create gold nanoparticles on the titanium surface with defined particle size and distribution, which could…
Understanding how light interacts at the nanoscale with metals, semiconductors, or ordinary dielectrics is pivotal if one is to properly engineer nano-antennas, filters and, more generally, devices that aim to harness the effects of new…
We describe the development of a tracking device, mounted on an epi-fluorescent inverted microscope, suited to obtain time resolved 3D Lagrangian tracks of fluorescent passive or active micro-objects in micro-fluidic devices. The system is…
We provide detailed experimental guidelines for implementing digital holography in the context of high-sensitivity interferometric scattering (iSCAT) based nanosizing applications. Our approach relies on interferometry via the highly…
Colloidal lithography [1] is how patterns are reproduced in a variety of natural systems and is used more and more as an efficient fabrication tool in bio-, opto-, and nano-technology. Nanoparticles in the colloid are made to form a mask on…
We present a novel technique to remotely measure and control the local temperature within a medium. This technique is based on the observation of the rotational Brownian motion of gold nanocrescent particles, which possess a strong…
We report the studies of ultrafast electron nanocrystallography on size-selected Au nanoparticles (2-20 nm) supported on a molecular interface. Reversible surface melting, melting, and recrystallization were investigated with dynamical…
Gold nanoparticles have been synthesized inside ethosomes, vesicles composed of phospholipid, ethanol and water, which could be very efficient not only in delivery probes to the skin but also as diagnostic and therapeutic multimodal agents.…
Optical properties of polymer capped gold nanoparticles of various sizes (diameter 3-6 nm) have been studied. We present a new scheme to extract size dependent variation of total dielectric function of gold nanoparticles from measured…
Watching the motion of electrons on their natural nanometre length- and femtosecond time scales is a fundamental goal and an open challenge of contemporary ultrafast science. Optical techniques and electron microscopy currently mostly…
Dense layers of overlapping three-dimensional (3D) gold nanodendrites characterized by high specific surfaces as well as by abundance of sharp edges and vertices creating high densities of SERS hotspots are promising substrates for…
Holographic microscopy has developed into a powerful tool for 3D particle tracking, yielding nanometer-scale precision at high frame rates. However, current particle tracking algorithms ignore the effect of the microscope objective on the…
In this paper, we present a simple and robust numerical method able to predict, with high accuracy, the photo-thermal effects occurring for a gold nanoparticles arrangement under externally applied strain. The physical system is numerically…
We propose an holographic microscopy reconstruction method, which propagates the hologram, in the object half space, in the vicinity of the object. The calibration yields reconstructions with an undistorted reconstruction grid i.e. with…
By a proper arrangement of a digital holography setup, that combines off-axis geometry with phase-shifting recording conditions, it is possible to reach the theoretical shot noise limit, in real-time experiments.We studied this limit, and…
Nanoporous gold can be exploited as plasmonic material for enhanced spectroscopy both in the visible and in the near infrared spectral regions. In particular, with respect to bulk metal it presents interesting optical properties in the…
We measure the transient absorption of single gold particles with a common-path interferometer. The prompt electronic part of the signal provides high-contrast images for diameters as small as 10 nm. Mechanical vibrations of single…
Gold nanorods have unique optical properties, which make them promising candidates for building nano-structured materials using a "bottom-up" strategy. We formulate stable bulk materials with anisotropic optical properties by inserting gold…
Aiming at fabrication of hybrid plasmonic-photonic crystals, gel-immobilized colloidal crystals made of a polystyrene colloidal suspension and an N-(Hydroxy methyl)acrylamid-based gel were immersed into an aqueous dispersion of gold…
Bio-conjugated nanomaterials play a promising role in the development of novel supramolecular structures, molecular machines, and biosensing devices. In this study, lipid-conjugated gold nanoparticles were synthesized and allowed to form a…
