摘要
Silver nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized inside mesoporous silica films with chiral nematic structure. Circular dichroism measurements of the silver NP-loaded silica films show NP-based optical activity in the vicinity of the surface plasmon resonance. These materials, with an optical response associated with the chiral assembly of metal NPs, may be useful for developing new sensors.
