We are proud of our research! Our latest publication on nanothermometry is in the top-10 most-read NanoLetters papers of the month!
(left) Anti-Stokes emission spectra of an individual gold nanorod excited in resonance with different laser powers. The lines are fits using our model. (right) Extracted temperature of the nanorod for several excitation powers.
Briefly, in this paper we present a method to extract the absolute temperature of an individual gold nanorod by measuring the anti-Stokes emission spectra. We present a simple model to interpret the data and we show that we can achieve 4K accuracy in the temperature determination with only 180s integration time.
Congratulations to the authors!
