Orchestrating Interfacial Carrier Dynamics and Plasmonic Coupling toward High-Efficiency Photothermal Conversion for Sensitive Point-of-Care Testing.
Current design strategies for photothermal nanotags in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) focus largely on enhancing light-harvesting ability, yet overlook the modulation of photogenerated carrier dynamics. This critical oversight leads to suboptimal photothermal performance of nanotags and limits the sensitivity of photo...
