Gold Nanostar Substrates for SERS Sensing in the Femtomolar Regime

Invention Summary: Raman spectroscopy is a valuable analytical tool that employs vibration patterns for the identification of molecules. However, it is limited due to the low scattering cross section of most Raman active molecules, which leads to low sensitivity. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) increases the intensity of Raman...

Near infrared photocatalyst based on TiO2-coated gold nanoparticles

Invention Summary: Nanoparticles such as gold nanospheres, nanorods and nanostars are a promising additive to titanium dioxide (TiO2) to increase photocatalytic efficiency. Conventional TiO2-nanoparticles are promising materials to drive photocatalytic reactions using light. However, they can only use UV wavelengths to promote reaction. There...
