Modifying the Fluorescence of CdTe Quantum Dots by Silica-coated Gold Nanorods

The influence of Au nanorods coated with a silica layer on the photoluminescence (PL) of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) was investigated. The Au nanorods were prepared using a seed-mediated method. They were coated with a silica layer on the surface and CdTe QDs were connected to the surface of the silica...
