Item type:Publication, Access status: with files , Engineered self-assembly of plasmonic gold nanoparticles into two-dimensional and three-dimensional arrays within the pores of porous silicon membranes(Wiley, 2026-02-07); ; ; ; We report a facile centrifugation-based method for assembling polystyrene (PSSH)-functionalized gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) onto porous silicon (pSi) substrates in two distinct configurations: two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) assemblies. The 2D assemblies are densely packed monolayer coatings of the exposed Si-surfaces including the inner pore walls, whereas the 3D structures result from Au NPs clustering inside the pores. Remarkably, this shift from 2D to 3D architectures was achieved by minor modification of the PSSH coating thickness. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization confirmed the homogeneity and high packing density of these assemblies extending over several thousand square micrometers. This approach offers a straightforward and versatile route for the fabrication of well-ordered pSi–Au NP hybrid nanostructures with potential applications in catalysis, surface-enhanced spectroscopy and optical metamaterials.Publicationtype: Journal Article42 66
