Facile deposition of continuous gold shells on Tween-20 modified Fe3O4 superparticles

Abstract

A facile method to deposit continuous Au shells on Fe3O4 colloidal superparticles was developed by introducing Tween-20 as a surface modification agent to maintain the colloidal stability of the Fe3O4 superparticles and provide nucleation and growth sites for the Au shells. The Fe3O4–Au core–shell particles showed excellent chemical stability, superparamagnetic properties and efficient photothermal conversion performance under laser irradiation at 808 nm, and were expected to be a useful material for biodetection and cancer therapy.
