The ability to discern noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) with different sizes and in ambient media with different refractive indices has important applications in imaging and sensing. Here a two-color (405 nm, 445 nm) interferometric scattering (iSCAT) detection scheme is applied to characterize the wavelength-dependent iSCAT contrast of Ag NPs with nominal diameters of 10, 20, 40, and 60 nm and to distinguish between NPs of different sizes. The iSCAT contrast also depends on the ambient refractive index and the relative iSCAT contrast on both channels revealed a spectral red-shift for 40 and 60 nm Ag NPs when the ambient refractive index was increased fromn= 1.3892 ton= 1.4328. With the selected wavelength channels, the spectral resolution of the two-color imaging strategy was, however, insufficient to resolve spectral shifts induced by refractive index changes for 10 and 20 nm Ag NPs.
