Abstract
, 40 d) and the doxorubicin-treated group (23 d). This study demonstrates a simple but effective method to tune and maximize the plasmonic field-field coupling between the metal shell and metal core of core-gap-shell nanostructures, the plasmonic field-lattice interactions, and biomedical applications for the treatment of tumors. Overall, our work presents a new way to enhance/maximize the plasmonic field-field and field-lattice coupling, and thus the performance/sensitivities in nanogap-based bioimaging, sensing, and theranostic nanomaterials and devices.
