Self-Assembled Ligand-Capped Plasmonic Au Nanoparticle Films in the Kretschmann Configuration for Sensing of Volatile Organic Compounds
Rituraj Borah, Jorid Smets, Rajeshreddy Ninakanti +6
Films of close-packed Au nanoparticles are coupled electrodynamically through their collective plasmon resonances. This collective optical response results in enhanced light-matter…
Silver-Gold Bimetallic Alloy versus Core-Shell Nanoparticles: Implications for Plasmonic Enhancement and Photothermal Applications
Rituraj Borah, Sammy W. Verbruggen
Bimetallic plasmonic nanoparticles enable tuning of the optical response and chemical stability by variation of the composition. The present numerical simulation study compares Ag-…
Selectivity in Ligand Functionalization of Photocatalytic Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Phase Transfer and Self-assembly Applications
Rituraj Borah, Rajeshreddy Ninakanti, Gert Nuyts +8
Functionalization of photocatalytic metal oxide nanoparticles of TiO2, ZnO, WO3 and CuO with amine-terminated (oleylamine) and thiol-terminated (1-dodecanethiol) alkyl chained liga…
Effect of size distribution, skewness and roughness on the optical properties of colloidal plasmonic nanoparticles
Rituraj Borah, Sammy W. Verbruggen
It is a generally accepted idea that the particle size distribution strongly affects the optical spectra of colloidal plasmonic nanoparticles. It is often quoted as one of the main…
Coupled Plasmon Modes in 2D Gold Nanoparticle Clusters and their Effect on Local Temperature Control
Rituraj Borah, Sammy W. Verbruggen
Assemblies of closely separated gold nanoparticles exhibit a strong collective plasmonic response due to coupling of the plasmon modes of the individual nanostructures. In the cont…
Synthesis and Characterization of Photoreactive TiO2/Carbon Nanosheet Composites
Mert Kurttepeli, Shaoren Deng, Sammy W. Verbruggen +7
We report the atomic layer deposition of titanium dioxide on carbon nanosheet templates and investigate the effects of post-deposition annealing in a helium environment using diffe…
Atomic Layer Deposition-Based Synthesis of Photoactive TiO2 Nanoparticle Chains by Using Carbon Nanotubes as Sacrificial Templates
Shaoren Deng, Sammy W. Verbruggen, Zhanbing He +6
Highly ordered and self supported anatase TiO2 nanoparticle chains were fabricated by calcining conformally TiO2 coated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). During annealing, th…
Photocatalytic acetaldehyde oxidation in air using spacious TiO2 films prepared by atomic layer deposition on supported carbonaceous sacrificial templates
Sammy W Verbruggen, Shaoren Deng, Mert Kurttepeli +6
Supported carbon nanosheets and carbon nanotubes served as sacrificial templates for preparing spacious TiO2 photocatalytic thin films. Amorphous TiO2 was deposited conformally on…
