@indranath_chak Thanks!

@IIISchulzIII Congratulations

Nanoparticles in pores Beautiful SEM by Juan - find many more in his paper: aces.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Our first 2026 Paper: The combination of two facile and reliable SERS Chemosensors enables simultaneous detection of aciditic and Iron. One-Shot SERRS Detection of Iron and Acidity in Aqueous Systems | ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

If you happen to be in Wien today and have some time in the afternoon feel invited to join this seminar (on plasmonic nanoparticles of course ☺️) and discussion: tuwien.at/en/phy/iap/eve…

Thanks to the organizers @bardmital and @JamesKUtterback ! Very nice and interesting symposium.

Many job oportunities in Hamburg's new cluster of excellence (BlueMat) for early career researchers... tuhh.de/bluemat/get-in…

this PEGMUA ligand has been a working horse for many years now: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

It's nice to see that my particles are used as tracers for testing the newest generation of detectors 😍 journals.iucr.org/s/issues/2025/…

A nice transient absorption based study on energy conversion in hybrid nanostructures (Au-Pd). Fig. 5 sums it all up: on picosecond timescales the Pd "satellites" heat up much more efficiently than the gold "core"... nature.com/articles/s4146…

@JamesKUtterback Congratulations James, that's awesome!

I am extremely grateful to announce that I have received the ERC Starting Grant! This is a huge step and it means exciting opportunities for my group in the near future.

If you are interested, check out the high resolution optical microscopy image collected during the measurements in Figure S2. Looks a little wild but is actually a snapshot of the different stages of crystallization.

We measured the self-assembly of nanoparticles with a vertical SAXS geometry allowing to oberve the formation and densification of the superlattice nicely, the experiment is described here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thanks for inviting me, looking forward to this conference!

Out now in Nanotoday @ElsevierConnect ! Interesting Paper on how the encaspulation of Gold nanocluster in a biodegradable polymer matrix changes their endo- and exocytosis: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The structures and their plasmonic properties are discussed herein: x.com/IIISchulzIII/s…

The crystalline domains can be quite large, but they don't form everywhere, we also observe amorphous domains.

Here you can see one example of pentagonal nanobipyramids self-assembled into a beautiful superstructure. At the edges we can also discern what seems to be the "soft" polymer coating.

We assembled pentagonal nanobipyramids into crystalline structures and studied the resulting near- and far-field properties, check out the structures in the SI...

Very happy that this paper is now out, open access! A nice cooperation of colloidal chemistry, electron microscopy and nanooptics/spectroscopy experts from Paris, Berlin and Hamburg. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sm…

Großartiger Erfolg! 👏 Die Uni Hamburg hat im Rahmen der Exzellenzstrategie den Zuschlag für vier Exzellenzcluster erhalten. Damit werden die bestehenden Exzellenzcluster ab 2026 für sieben weitere Jahre gefördert. uhh.de/f1iz0 (1/2)
