Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence and FRET in Multilayer Core-Shell Nanoparticles

Figure 7

Influence of metal core proximity and dye concentration on the fluorescence intensity of Ag@SiO2@SiO2 + eosin nanocomposites. Three different spacer thicknesses were studied ((A) 7 ± 2 nm; (B) 13 ± 2 nm; (C) 23 ± 3 nm). (Reprinted with permission from [39], Copyright 2009 American Chemical Society).
