Program Highlights for year 2014
The shape-dependent optical properties of metal nanostructures have motivated efforts to correlate nanoparticle structure with plasmonic behavior. In particular, gold bipyramids (BPs) are of interest due to their sharp tips that lead to strong localized field enhancement and high sensitivity to the surrounding environment.
Northwestern MRSEC provides the physical and intellectual infrastructure to nucleate collaborative opportunities in materials research both on and off the Northwestern campus, and continues to leverage its diverse portfolio of research into new educational and commercial opportunities. Recent examples include:
