Stable and Functional Gold Nanorod Composites with a Metal–Organic Framework Crystalline Shell

Practical and functional surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active nanomaterials working in solution require a protecting shell. In this study, we demonstrate the fabrication of gold nanorods coated by metal–organic frameworks of several hundred nanometers in size, which is one kind of crystal...

Description
Summary:Practical and functional surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active nanomaterials working in solution require a protecting shell. In this study, we demonstrate the fabrication of gold nanorods coated by metal–organic frameworks of several hundred nanometers in size, which is one kind of crystalline porous materials, as s suspension-based SERS sensor. The composites also showed enough stability and reproducibility for detection of the guest molecules.
