Article Abstract
In this paper, a three-layer structure of silver particle (AgNP)-dielectric-metal is proposed and constructed based on the characteristics of AgNPs that can excite LSPR (Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance) in free space. In order to overcome the problem of AgNPs easily oxidizing in the air, this paper synthesizes AgNPs using the improved Tollens method and effectively suppresses the coffee-ring effect by changing the solution evaporation conditions, so that the distribution of AgNPs in the deposition area is relatively uniform. The structure proposed in this paper takes advantage of the flexibility of nanoparticle application. The AgNPs deposited on the dielectric layer can effectively localize energy and regulate the LSPR of the device well. The structure can not only achieve precise regulation of the LSPR resonance peak of AgNPs but also can be used as a SERS substrate.

Molecular imaging in nuclear medicine has been employed extensively in recent years for tumor-targeted diagnosis and treatment that is attributed to its non-invasive property, which enables visualized functional localization. This functionality relies on the development of radionuclide molecular probes designed with the objective of identifying specific targets on the surface of tumors. Epithelial cell adhesion molecules (EpCAM) are considered to be a promising target as an antigenic marker for its widely present and integral to the processes associated with tumor occurrence and progression.

The surface structure of an electrocatalyst plays a crucial role in determining the activity. As a model system, gold has been widely investigated as an electro-oxidation catalyst, although there has been much less research on the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in the potential region of gold oxidation. Here, we combine voltammetric scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), at different spatial and angular resolutions, respectively, to correlate the local crystallographic structure of polycrystalline goldfocusing on grains close to (113), (011), (114), and (111) orientationswith the electrocatalytic behavior for the OER.

Silver nanoprisms (AgNPrs) are promising candidates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) due to their strong localized surface plasmon resonance and sharp tip geometry. In this study, AgNPrs were synthesized through a photochemical method by irradiating spherical silver nanoparticle seeds with 10 W green light-emitting diodes (LEDs; 520 ± 20 nm) for various periods of time up to 72 h. The growth mechanism was investigated through ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy analyses, confirming the gradual transformation of spherical seeds into AgNPrs.

Thermoelectric nanoplates derived from anisotropic van der Waals (vdW) materials such as BiTe are pivotal for flexible electronics and microscale thermal management. Their performance critically depends on grain boundary (GB) microstructure, but the atomic-scale mechanisms governing grain growth in these highly anisotropic systems remain elusive. This particularly concerns the competition between individual nanoplate reshaping driven by facet stabilization and collective merging at GBs.

Background: Organotypic long-term cultivation of vascularized retina explants is a major challenge for application in drug development, drug screening, diagnostics and future personalized medicine. With this background, an assay and protocol for organotypic culture of vascularized retina explants in vitro with optimum tissue integrity preservation is developed and demonstrated.
Methods: Morphological, histologic and biochemical integrity as well as viability of vascularized retina explants are compared as function of cultivation time for differently structured nanotube scaffolds.
