✦ Synopsis
Localized surface plasmon resonance excited in gold nanoparticles coupled with a responsive polymer gel is explored. A specially designed structure (vertically aligned cylindrical pores decorated with gold nanoparticles) of responsive polymer gel thin films allows for the transduction of external signal/ stimuli into a strong optical effect enhanced by interactions of gold nanoparticles.
