Abstract:
An aureate dye: Confined electromagnetic fields in DNA-templated gold nanoparticle dimers were tuned to engineer the fluorescence properties of organic dyes in water (see picture). Purified suspensions of hybrid metal-organic chromophores featured unprecedented photophysical properties, such as a short lifetime and low quantum yield but high brightness.
