Article Synopsis
- Core-shell gold-silver cuboidal nanoparticles were created with either concave or straight facets and showed significant changes when incubated with low concentrations of chiral l-glutathione (GSH).
- The interaction of GSH with the nanoparticles led to unique UV plasmonic extinction and induced circular dichroism (CD) peaks, indicating a sensitive dependency on the thickness of the silver shell.
- GSH molecules altered the distribution of silver in the nanoparticles, enhancing plasmonic CD effects especially in concave-shaped nanocuboids compared to those with straight facets.
