Key Points

This research aims to investigate how the assembly modes of gold nanorods affect their chiroptical properties.
Polymer-guided assembly of gold nanorods into end-to-end and side-by-side configurations.
Evaluation of circular dichroism responses for both assembly modes.
End-to-end assemblies significantly amplify circular dichroism response compared to side-by-side arrays.

Implication

Demonstrates chiroptical modulation in gold nanorod assemblies, suggesting novel optical applications.

Abstract

We report polymer-guided assembly of chiral gold nanorods (AuNRs) into end-to-end (EE) and side-by-side (SS) modes, modulating their chiroptical responses. EE assemblies amplify circular dichroism (CD) response due to the...
