When subjected to extreme heat via focused laser beams, Silica-coated Gold Nanorods resist melting and shape distortion. In addition to thermodynamic stability, silica coating also facilitates heat transfer to surrounding fluid, maximizing signal strength. These benefits make gold nanorods optimized contrast agent for in vitro and in vivo photoacoustic imaging as well as other applications involving continuous or pulsed lasers.
