White light thermoplasmonic activated gold nanorod arrays enable the photo-thermal disinfection of medical tools from bacterial contamination

Abstract

AuNRs immobilized on rigid substrates are utilized as thermo-optical transducers under white light irradiation. The achieved temperature increase is suitable for producing photo-thermal disinfection of surgical tools contaminated with E. coli cells.
