Published: July 2017

Herein, we report on wavelength-selective and high-contrast multicolour fluorescence photoswitching between white-, orange-, cyan-, and dark-colours in a mixture of two distinguishable emission-coloured photochromic nanoparticles composed of different pairs of a photoswitching unit and a fluorescence unit.

We report spectrally selective visible wavelength reflectors using hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC:H) as a high index contrast material. Beyond 610nm and through the near infrared spectrum, a-SiC:H exhibits very low loss and exhibits an wavelength averaged index of refraction of n = 3.1.

In this paper, we report the use of bioconjugated gold nanorods and silver nanoparticles as targeted localized surface plasmon resonance enhanced scattering probes for dark field multiplex and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging of pancreatic cancer cells. We take advantage of the spectrally widely separated localized plasmon resonance of the gold nanorods and silver nanoparticles which produce wavelength selective plasmon resonance scattering to allow multiplex imaging with high contrast. By functionalizing the surfaces, aqueous dispersions of bioconjugated gold nanorods and silver nanoparticles are prepared.
