Resumo
In this work, we establish a new paradigm on identifying optimal arbitrarily shaped metallic nanostructures for photothermal applications. Crucial thermo-optical parameters that rule plasmonic heating are appraised, exploring a nanoparticle size-dependence approach. Our results indicate two distinct figures of merit for the optimization of metallic nanoheaters, under both non-cumulative femtosecond and continuum laser excitation. As a case study, gold nanorods are evaluated for infrared photothermal conversion in water, and the influence of the particle length and diameter are depicted. For non-cumulative femtosecond pulses, efficient photothermal conversion is observed for gold nanorods of small volumes. For continuous wave (CW) excitation at 800 nm and 1064 nm, the optimal gold nanorod dimensions (in water) are, respectively, 90 × 25nm and 150 × 30 nm. Figure of Merit (FoM) variations up to 700% were found considering structures with the same peak wavelength. The effect of collective heating is also appraised. The designing of high-performance plasmonic nanoparticles, based on quantifying FoM, allows a rational use of nanoheaters for localized photothermal applications.
