Abstract
For photothermal therapy of cancer, it is necessary to find Ag @TiO2 core-shell nanoparticles that can freely tune the resonance wavelength within the near-infrared biological window. In this paper, the finite element method and the size-dependent refractive index of metal nanoparticles were used to theoretically investigate the effects of the core material, core length, core aspect ratio, shell thickness, refractive index of the surrounding medium, and the particle orientation on the light absorption properties of Ag@TiO2 core-shell nanospheroid and nanorod. The calculations show that the position and intensity of the light absorption resonance peaks can be freely tuned within the first and second biological windows by changing the above-mentioned parameters. Two laser wavelengths commonly used in photothermal therapy, 808 nm (first biological window) and 1064 nm (second biological window), were selected to optimize the core length and aspect ratio of Ag@TiO2 core-shell nanospheroid and nanorod. It was found that the optimized Ag@TiO2 core-shell nanospheroid has a stronger light absorption capacity at the laser wavelengths of 808 nm and 1064 nm. The optimized Ag@TiO2 core-shell nanoparticles can be used as ideal therapeutic agents in photothermal therapy.

Abstract
In this work, it is reported that large-area (centimeter-scale) arrays of non-close-packed polystyrene-tethered gold nanorod (AuNR@PS) can be prepared through a liquid-liquid interfacial assembly method. Most importantly, the orientation of AuNRs in the arrays can be controlled by changing the intensity and direction of electric field applied in the solvent annealing process. The interparticle distance of AuNR can be tuned by varying the length of polymer ligands. Moreover, the AuNR@PS with short PS ligand are favorited to form orientated arrays with the assistance of electric field, while long PS ligands make the orientation of AuNRs difficult. The orientated AuNR@PS arrays are employed as the nano-floating gate of field-effect transistor memory device. Tunable charge trapping and retention characteristics in the device can be realized by electrical pulse with visible light illumination. The memory device with orientated AuNR@PS array required less illumination time (1 s) at the same onset voltage in programming operation, compared to the control device with disordered AuNR@PS array (illumination time: 3 s). Moreover, the orientated AuNR@PS array-based memory device can maintain the stored data for more than 9000 s, and exhibits stable endurance characteristic without significant degradation in 50 programming/reading/erasing/reading cycles.

Abstract
Evaporation-induced assembly of nanoparticles has emerged as a versatile technique for the production of large-scale ordered structures and materials with complex features. In this study, we show that a dried particulate of an anisotropic nanocolloid undergoes non-ubiquitous surface morphological transitions at varying particle concentrations. Below 5 nM, deposits reveal the formation of linear arrays of AuNR clusters outside of the coffee ring and an annular CTAB-rich depletion zone in the inner vicinity of the coffee ring. For nanoparticle concentrations ≥5 nM, the outer cluster deposits disappear and a region of reduced AuNR density, sandwiched between the coffee ring and the depletion zone, analogous to the diminished zone, is observed. Within the coffee-ring deposits, nanoscale smectic AuNR assembly occurs via the expulsion of the cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) bilayer, which contributes to the inward solutal Marangoni flow. An enhanced inward solutal Marangoni flow at high particle concentrations assists in the formation of a wider depletion zone, the emergence of the diminished zone and suppression of the width of the coffee-ring deposits. Through detailed analysis of data from ex situ (scanning electron microscopy, SEM) and in situ (contact angle and confocal imaging) measurements, we establish a direct correlation between the different evaporation modes and the various deposition regimes. A detailed mechanism for the surface morphology modulation of AuNR deposits by tuning the nanoparticle concentration in the drying sessile drop is discussed.

Abstract
Gold nanorods are well-known surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrates. Under longitudinal plasmonic excitation, the ends of the nanorods experience larger local electric fields compared to the sides of the rods, suggesting that Raman-active molecules would be best detected if the molecules could preferentially bind to the ends of the nanorods. Coating the tips of gold nanorods with anionic mesoporous silica caps enabled surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of the cationic dye methylene blue at lower concentrations than observed for the corresponding silica coating of the entire rod. By analyzing the intensity ratio of two Raman active modes of methylene blue and the surface plasmon resonance peak shift of the gold nanorod composites, it can be inferred that at a low concentration of methylene blue, molecules adsorb to the tips of the tip coated silica gold nanorods. Functionalization of the anionic silica endcaps with cationic groups eliminates the SERS enhancement for the cationic methylene blue, demonstrating the electrostatic nature of the adsorption process in this case. These results show that anisotropic silica coatings can concentrate analytes at the tips of gold nanorods for improvements in chemical sensing and diagnostics.

Abstract
Laying-down gold nanorods (GNRs) of a monolayer immobilized on a solid substrate was realized with a hybrid method, a combination of three elemental technologies: surface modification, electrophoresis, and solvent evaporation. The self-assembly of CTAB-protected GNRs in the solution was induced by 0.05 mM of EDTA. The assembled GNRs were deposited in a laying-down form on the solid surface during the hybrid method. The final coverage was over 71% on the substrate with an area larger than 0.6 cm2. The spacing between the sides of the GNRs was fixed to be 4.6 ± 0.9 nm by the thermal annealing-promoted crystalline packing of the bilayer of CTAB salt-bridged with EDTA. The obtained laying-down GNRs of a monolayer on the gold substrate show a small shift of the transverse LSPR around 550-570 nm (with a width of around 100 nm) and a large red shift of the longitudinal LSPR to be 900-1050 nm (with a width of 500 nm), because of the strong electromagnetic coupling between the GNRs and gold substrate. Therefore it can be used in a wide range of wavelengths for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) applications. The film has a high enhancement factor with 105 for R6G.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (NRs), pseudo-one-dimensional rod-shaped nanoparticles (NPs), have become one of the burgeoning materials in the recent years due to their anisotropic shape and adjustable plasmonic properties. With the continuous improvement in synthetic methods, a variety of materials have been attached around Au NRs to achieve unexpected or improved plasmonic properties and explore state-of-the-art technologies. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the latest progress on Au NRs, the most versatile anisotropic plasmonic NPs. We present a representative overview of the advances in the synthetic strategies and outline an extensive catalogue of Au-NR-based heterostructures with tailored architectures and special functionalities. The bottom-up assembly of Au NRs into preprogrammed metastructures is then discussed, as well as the design principles. We also provide a systematic elucidation of the different plasmonic properties associated with the Au-NR-based structures, followed by a discussion of the promising applications of Au NRs in various fields. We finally discuss the future research directions and challenges of Au NRs.

Abstract
Vertically aligned gold nanorod arrays have attracted much attention for their fascinating optical properties. Different from longitudinal surface plasmon wavelength (LSPW) and edge-to-edge spacing of gold nanorods, the role of gold nanorod diameter in plasmonic enhancement ability of vertical gold nanorod arrays has rarely been explored. In this work, we selected gold nanorods with similar LSPW but two different diameters (22 and 41 nm), the optical properties of which are dominated by absorption and scattering cross sections, respectively. The vertically aligned arrays of these gold nanorods formed by evaporation self-assembly are coupled with nonlinear ZnO nanocrystal films spin-coated on their surfaces. It was found that the gold nanorod array with a larger diameter can enhance the second harmonic generation (SHG) of ZnO nanofilm by a factor of 27.0, while it is about 7.3 for the smaller gold nanorod array. Theoretical simulations indicate that such stronger enhancement of the larger vertical gold nanorod array compared with the smaller one is due to its stronger scattering ability and greater extent of near-field enhancement at SHG fundamental wavelength. Our work shows that the diameter of gold nanorods is also an important factor to be considered in realizing strong plasmon enhancement of vertically aligned gold nanorod arrays.

Abstract
In this work, we successfully demonstrate high-yield synthesis of high-quality gold nanorods (Au NRs) with width ranging from 6.5 nm to 175 nm by introducing heptanol molecules as secondary templating agents during cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-templated, seeded growth method. The results show that an appropriate concentration of heptanol molecules not only alter the micellization behavior of CTAB in water, but also help silver ions impact the symmetry-breaking efficiency of additional Au-NP seeds in addition to enhancing the utilization of gold precursors. Moreover, the generality and versatility of the present strategy for synthesis of Au NRs with flexible controlled dimensions are further demonstrated by successful synthesis of Au NRs with the assistance of other fatty alcohols with properly long alkyl chains. Furthermore, when arrays of vertically aligned Au NRs with large width (AVA-Au120×90 NRs) are used as SERS substrates, they can achieve the ultralow limit of detection for crystal violet (10-16 M) with good reliability and reproducibility, and the rapid detection and identification of residual harmful substances.

Abstract
We demonstrated a facile yet effective strategy for self-assembly of polymer end-tethered gold nanorods (GNRs) into tunable two-dimensional (2D) arrays with the assistance of supramolecules of hydrogen bonded poly(4-vinyl pyridine) (P4VP) and 3-n-pentadecylphenol (PDP). Well-ordered 2D arrays with micrometer size were obtained by rupturing the assembled supramolecular matrix with a selective solvent. The formation of long-range ordered 2D arrays during a drying process was observed via small-angle X-ray scattering. Interestingly, the packing structure of the ordered arrays strongly depends on the molecular weight (Mw) of the polymer ligands and the size of the GNRs. By increasing Mw of the polymer ligands, tilted arrays can be obtained. The average angle between GNRs and the surface normal direction of the layered 2D arrays changes from 0 to 37° with the increase in Mw of the polymer ligands. A mechanism for assembly behavior of dumbbell shapes with a soft shell structure has been proposed. The resulting GNR arrays with different orientations showed anisotropic surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) performance. We showed that the vertically ordered GNR arrays exhibited ∼3 times higher SERS signals than the tilt ordered arrays. The results prove that the polymer end-tethered GNRs can be used as a building block for preparing the tilted 2D arrays with tunable physicochemical properties, which could have a wide range of potential applications in photonics, electronics, plasmonics, etc.

Abstract
Modification of nanorods (NRs) with functional polymer ligands is of great significance to enhance their surface chemistry and prompt their applications in many fields (e.g., photothermal therapy, bioimaging, and catalysis). However, the regioselective modification of AuNRs still remains a great challenge. Herein, we introduce a facile yet versatile strategy to achieve the regioselective modification of AuNRs through a solvent quality-mediated strategy. By employing a poor solvent of the original ligand cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as the medium in the modification, polymer ligands would selectively graft onto the two ends of AuNRs, while polymer ligands would graft onto the entire surface when employing a good solvent. This strategy demonstrates good reproducibility and is applicable to both hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer ligand modifications. Moreover, by combing our strategy with the preoccupation route, the two ends and sidewall of AuNRs modified by two different polymers form an "ABA"-type building block, which can further self-assemble into well-ordered superstructures. Our finding provides a new opportunity for multifunctionalization of NRs.

Abstract
Gold-silver (Au@Ag) core-shell nanostructures have a stronger surface plasma response, wider absorption and scattering in the UV-vis-NIR region, and distinctive optical properties, which are widely explored in biosensors, information processing, photothermal therapy, and catalysis. Core-shell nanostructures are usually formed by the deposition of the second metal atoms onto the first core metal particles via the chemical wet method. The conventional approaches for the manipulation of the shape usually were done by homogeneous growth or etching of isotropic nanoparticles. Through in situ modification of the first metal core at the different locations, the different growth model of the second metal can be regulated to control the shapes of core-shell structures. Herein, we modified the gold nanorods (AuNRs) asymmetrically at the end and side parts using thiolated molecules to regulate the morphology of gold nanorod@silver (AuNR@Ag) core-shell nanoparticles. Interestingly, the obvious eccentric nanostructures of AuNR@Ag core-shell nanoparticles were obtained with the increase of the molecular weight of macromolecules modified at the end of AuNRs. Therefore the growth mode was adjusted from Frank-van der Merwe mode to Stranski-Krastanow mode. By changing the length of the hydrocarbon chain and functional groups of the small mercaptan molecules at the side of AuNRs, the silver shell exhibits selective growth at the side of the AuNRs, resulting in heterogeneous core-shell nanoparticles and various shapes of the AuNR@Ag core-shell. Our method opens up a new avenue toward preparing core-shell nanostructures with controlled shapes, and the obtained structures are promising in various applications.

Abstract
This review is focused on recent developments of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) applications in Analytical Chemistry. The work covers advances in the fabrication methods of SERS substrates, including nanoparticles immobilization techniques and advanced nanopatterning with metallic features. Recent insights in quantitative and sampling methods for SERS implementation and the development of new SERS-based approaches for both qualitative and quantitative analysis are discussed. The advent of methods for pre-concentration and new approaches for single-molecule SERS quantification, such as the digital SERS procedure, has provided additional improvements in the analytical figures-of-merit for analysis and assays based on SERS. The use of metal nanostructures as SERS detection elements integrated in devices, such as microfluidic systems and optical fibers, provided new tools for SERS applications that expand beyond the laboratory environment, bringing new opportunities for real-time field tests and process monitoring based on SERS. Finally, selected examples of SERS applications in analytical and bioanalytical chemistry are discussed. The breadth of this work reflects the vast diversity of subjects and approaches that are inherent to the SERS field. The state of the field indicates the potential for a variety of new SERS-based methods and technologies that can be routinely applied in analytical laboratories.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence immunoassays are usually carried out through "on-electrode" strategy, i.e., sandwich-type immunoassay format, the sensitivity of which is restricted by two key bottlenecks: (1) the number of signal labels is limited and (2) only a part of signal labels could participate in the electrode reaction. In this Perspective, we discuss the development of an "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type concept-based immunocomplex immobilization strategy. The biggest difference from the traditional sandwich-type one is that the designed "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay uses a conductive two-dimensional (2-D) nanomaterial simultaneously coated with signal labels and a recognition component as the detection unit, which could directly overlap on the electrode surface. In such a case, electrons could flow freely from the electrode to the detection unit, the outer Helmholtz plane (OHP) of the electrode is extended, and thousands of signal labels coated on the 2-D nanomaterial are all electrochemically "effective." Thus, then, the above-mentioned bottlenecks obstructing the improvement of the sensitivity in sandwich-type immunoassay are eliminated, and as a result a much higher sensitivity of the Faraday-cage-type immunoassay can be obtained. And, the applications of the proposed versatile "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay have been explored in the detection of target polypeptide, protein, pathogen, and microRNA, with the detection sensitivity improved tens to hundreds of times. Finally, the outlook and challenges in the field are summarized. The rise of Faraday-cage-type electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (FCT-ECLIA)-based biosensing strategies opens new horizons for a wide range of early clinical identification and diagnostic applications.

Abstract
MicroRNAs are widely used as tumor markers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Herein, a multiple signal amplification sandwich-type SERS biosensor for femtomolar detection of miRNA is reported. The signal unit consisted of giant Au vesicles, DNA sequences and deposited silver nanoparticles. The giant Au vesicles provided large-volume hot spots because of sharp tips and abundant hotspot gaps, thus enhancing the electromagnetic intensity for the SERS performance. Further silver stain would easily lead to second-stage amplification of Raman signal. In addition, more SERS signal molecules R6G adsorbed on the signal unit with the aid of HCR and the controlled nanogaps between adjacent AgNPs, brought about the third-stage amplification. The capture unit, prepared by immobilizing the capture probe (CP) on the Fe3O4@AuNPs, could easily capture target miRNA and greatly simplify the separation step to improve reproducibility. The higher concentration of target miRNA definitely formed more sandwich-type structures with combination of capture unit and signal unit, resulting in multiple amplification of SERS signals. The proposed multiple signal amplification sandwich-type SERS biosensor could detect miRNA-141 at the femtomolar level with a low detection limit of 0.03 fM. Meanwhile, it exhibited high selectivity and accuracy, even for practical analysis in human serum. Therefore, the designed multiple signal amplification sandwich-type SERS biosensor would be a very promising alternative tool for the detection of miRNA and analogs in the field of biomedical diagnosis.

Abstract
Self-assembly of anisotropic plasmonic nanomaterials into ordered superstructures has become popular in nanoscience because of their unique anisotropic optical and electronic properties. Gold nanorods (GNRs) are a well-defined functional building block for fabrication of these superstructures. They possess important anisotropic plasmonic characteristics that result from strong local electric field and are responsive to visible and near-IR light. There are recent examples of assembling the GNRs into ordered arrays or superstructures through processes such as solvent evaporation and interfacial assembly. In this Minireview, recent progress in the development of the self-assembled GNR arrays is described, with focus on the formation of oriented GNR arrays on substrates. Key driving forces are discussed, and different strategies and self-assembly processes of forming oriented GNR arrays are presented. The applications of the oriented GNR arrays in optoelectronic devices are also overviewed, especially surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS).

Abstract
The unique photonic effect of self-assembled metal nanoparticles is widely used in many applications. In this article, we prepared self-assembled gold nanorod (GNR) vertical arrays substrate by an evaporation method and found that the morphology of the substrate can be effectively regulated by changing the immersion time in the target molecules solution to obtain different Raman enhancement effects. We separately calculated the local electromagnetic field of the GNR vertical arrays and disorder substrate by the finite element method (FEM), which was consistent with the experimental results. Based on optimal soaking time, the sensitivity, reproducibility, and stability of substrates were separately studied. The experimental results show that the GNR vertical arrays can detect Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) at concentrations as low as 10-11 M and exhibit good reproducibility and stability due to local electromagnetic (EM) field enhancement caused by the coupling of adjacent nanorods. Thus, our work can demonstrate that the substrate has excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity and the obtained GNR vertical arrays have great potential for biosensor and biodetection.

Abstract
Current technologies still face a big challenge to achieve simultaneous rapid qualitative and quantitative detection of trypsin. In our present study, we developed a simple and effective strategy to sensitively, qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the activity of trypsin using a fluorescent polystyrene (PS) microsphere probe. PS spheres were first functionalized by the surface coating of polyethylene glycol (PEG), which could significantly decrease the possibility of nonspecific physical adsorption of the fluorescein isothiocyanate isomer-modified peptide (peptide-FITC). Then, the obtained PS-PEG spheres were chemically interacted with peptide-FITC, which were then employed to monitor the real-time activity of trypsin. The peptide used in our work contained rich lysine and arginine residues, which were the recognition sites of trypsin. When trypsin interacted with the PS-FITC-peptide microspheres, the peptide-FITC rapidly decomposed into free small fragments in solution, resulting in a gradual decrease in the fluorescence of the PS spheres. By taking advantage of the fluorescence changes using confocal microscopy imaging and fluorescence spectrum intensity, it is easy to achieve the qualitative and quantitative detection of trypsin, with a highly sensitive detection limit as low as 0.5 ng mL-1 and high selectivity. Thus, the designed fluorescent PS microsphere probe would be very promising in various applications such as food safety inspection, personal healthcare and on-site environmental monitoring.
