Stark Effect Control of the Scattering Properties of Plasmonic Nanogaps (2022)
Journal Article
Pagnotto, D., Muravitskaya, A., Benoit, D. M., Bouillard, J. S. G., & Adawi, A. M. (2023). Stark Effect Control of the Scattering Properties of Plasmonic Nanogaps. ACS Applied Optical Materials, 1(1), 500–506. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsaom.2c00135

The development of actively tunable plasmonic nanostructures enables real-time and on-demand enhancement of optical signals. This is an essential requirement for a wide range of applications such as sensing and nanophotonic devices. Here we show that...

Journal Article
Price, T. W., Renard, I., Prior, T. J., Kubíček, V., Benoit, D. M., Archibald, S. J., …Stasiuk, G. J. (2022). Bn2DT3A, a Chelator for 68Ga Positron Emission Tomography: Hydroxide Coordination Increases Biological Stability of [68Ga][Ga(Bn2DT3A)(OH)]−. Inorganic chemistry, 61(43), 17059–17067. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.2c01992

The chelator Bn2DT3A was used to produce a novel 68Ga complex for positron emission tomography (PET). Unusually, this system is stabilized by a coordinated hydroxide in aqueous solutions above pH 5, which confers sufficient stability for it to be use...
