Abstract

Monolayers of gold nanostars (GNS) are grafted on mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane-coated glass slides. In the formed monolayers the localized surface plasmon resonance of GNS can be tuned in the 700-1100 nm range. Upon laser excitation of the nearIR LSPR an efficient photothermal response is observed, inducing local hyperthermia and efficient killing of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms.
