Photothermal Conversion Profiling of Large-Scaled Synthesized Gold Nanorods Using Binary Surfactant with Hydroquinone as a Reducing Agent

Photothermal application of gold nanorods (AuNRs) is widely increasing because of their good photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) due to local surface plasmon resonance. However, the high concentration of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide used in the synthesis is a concern. Moreover, the mild a...
