In this work, a configuration of bulk gold nanorings with certain geometrical sizes has been utilized for designing efficient photonic subwavelength nanostructures. We verify that adjacent heptamers based on gold nanorings are able to couple and transport magnetic plasmon resonance along a nanoring array in chrysene and triphenylene molecule orientations. This magnetic resonance transmission is caused by an antiphase circular current through the heptamer arrays. An orientation model of nanoring heptamers helps us to provide efficient optical structures with a remarkable decay length and a trivial ratio of destructive interferences. Exploiting the robust magnetic plasmon resonance coupling effect between heptamers arrays, we would be able to propose a practical plasmonic waveguide, a Y-shaped optical power divider (splitter), and an ON/OFF router that is operating based on destructive and constructive interferences. The quality of power splitting has been discussed comprehensively and also, the effect of undesirable occasions on the functioning performance of the proposed router has been investigated numerically. Ultimately, we verify that employing heptamers based on gold nanorings leads us to propose efficient plasmonic nanostructures and devices that are able to work in the telecommunication spectrum.

The current surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates typically feature a single energy level, posing challenges in coordinating electromagnetic enhancement (EM) and chemical enhancement (CM), thereby limiting the sensitive detection of numerous crucial target molecules. In this study, novel aggregated nanorings (a-NRs) hybridizing Ag, Au and AgCl are constructed as SERS substrates. On one hand, the obtained a-NRs exhibit robust localized surface plasmon resonance absorption, whose wavelength can be tuned to match three commonly used laser wavelengths (532, 633 and 785 nm) to gain strong EM effect.

Pursuing more efficient multifunctional treatment is the main challenge of preclinical nanoparticle-mediated theranostics research. Here, nanoscale magnetite vortex donut shape was synthesized as a platform, and then ultrasmall gold nanoparticles were successfully embedded into the nanoring surface, thereby obtaining gold-modified magnetic vortex donut (GMVD). GMVD has a high photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 42.
