Abstract:The effects of metal‐enhanced fluorescence (MEF) of rhodamine dye by gold sub‐micro hexagonal plates were studied. A multilayered avidin–biotin complex was designed and used as a spacer to connect the fluorophore and the sub‐microplate. Fluorescence lifetime image microscopy (FLIM) combined with time‐correlated single‐photon counting was used to obtain lifetime images and intensities of dye on single particles. Gold hexagon plates ~900 nm were synthesized, and the avidin–biotin complexes were placed layer‐by‐l… Show more
