Synthesis and SERS : Reproducible Nanostar Plasmons and a Study of Optical Enhancement

Creator:

Ramsey, Jacob D.

Abstract:

Gold nanostars are a relative newcomer to the nanoparticle scene, and their unique properties make them very desirable for spectroscopic applications. These nanoparticles, with their sharp tips, create electric field enhancements that interact with light in an advantageous way. This Thesis outlines our in-depth study of gold nanostar synthesis, the...
