UV Treatment of the Stabilizing Shell for Improving the Photostability of Silver Nanoparticles

Silver nanoparticles or nanoclusters are quite sensitive to light exposure. In particular, irradiation in the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) region brings about a drastic modification of their optical properties due to growth and reshaping of the nanoparticles. In order to obtain lumines...
