Abstract

The aim of our work was to prepare stable nanohybrids of controlled size and shape consisting of a noble metal core decorated with polydiacetylenes (PDAs). Due to the combination of the outstanding linear and nonlinear optical properties of the polydiacetylenic chains with the electromagnetic field-enhancing capability of metal nanostructures, these novel composites can find potential application in different fields. In particular, the different colours exhibited by PDAs in relation to the chemical nature of the monomer and the polymerization procedure, as well as in response to environmental perturbations, make them excellent materials for the fabrication of sensing devices. On the basis of our previous work on PDA self-assembled monolayers on flat metal surfaces, the results of which are briefly reported, we prepared differently-shaped gold and silver nanocores (spheres, cages) coated with various diacetylenic monomers having end-groups able to firmly anchor to the metal surface. These nanohybrids exhibit in aqueous colloidal solution an enhanced photochemical polymerization monitored step by step with UV-Vis and SERS techniques. It is shown that in these stable assemblies an intra-particle polymerization takes place and that the dominant PDA form is conditioned by the core size and geometry. While the nanoparticles are SERS active in the visible, the nanocages should be excellent SERS substrates from the visible to the near infrared regions.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
