等离子体激元学作为一个新兴领域，旨在利用金属纳米结构的独特光学性质，使光在纳米尺度上的路由和主动操纵成为可能。等离子体激元加热是一种现象，最近被认为是其在光热治疗中的潜力。在这里，我们展示了第一个基于等离子体激元加热的概念验证实验，用于在聚合物基质中选择性和精确地嵌入纳米颗粒。我们展示了一种独特的方式，在原位制造的纳米复合材料在不同的形式，包括图案化，写入，和缺陷愈合的控制方式沿着与结晶度控制，通过光照射。
Plasmonics, as an emerging field, aims to exploit the unique optical properties of metallic nanostructures to enable routing and active manipulation of light on the nanoscale. Plasmonic heating is a phenomenon, which is recently recognized for its potential in photothermal therapy. Here we show the first proof-of-concept experiment based on plasmonic heating for selective and precise embedding of nanoparticles in a polymeric matrix. We demonstrate a unique way for in situ fabrication of nanocomposites in different forms including patterning, writing, and defect healing in a controlled manner along with crystallinity control through light irradiation.
