Core-satellite assembly of gold nanoshells on solid gold nanoparticles for a color coding plasmonic nanosensor
Bibliographic record
Abstract
the layer-by-layer assembly of nanoparticles linked by DNA. We used finite-difference time-domain simulations to help guide the geometrical design, and characterized the optical properties and morphology of the solid-shell nanoparticle assemblies using darkfield microscopy, single-nanostructure spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Plasmon coupling yielded resonant peaks at longer wavelengths in the red to near-infrared range for solid-shell assemblies compared with solid-solid nanoparticle assemblies. We examined sensing with the solid-shell assemblies using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as a model target and ATP-aptamer as the linker. Binding of ATP induced disassembly and led to a decrease in the scattering intensity and a color change from red to green. The new morphology of the core-satellite assembly enabled plasmonic color-coding of multiplexed sensors. We demonstrate this potential by fabricating two types of assemblies using DNA linkers that target different molecules - ATP and a model nucleic acid. Our work expands the capability of chip-based plasmonic nanoparticle assemblies for the analysis of multiple, different types of biomolecules in small sample sizes including the microenvironment and single cells.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
