Abstract:
A comprehensive survey on the methods for the surface modification of plasmonic noble metal-metal oxide core-shell nanoparticles is presented. The review highlights various strategies for covalent attachment and electrostatic binding of molecules and molecular ions to core-shell nanoparticles with a focus on plasmonically active silver and gold nanoparticles encapsulated by SiO2 and TiO2 shells.
