Title:
FUNCTIONALIZED NANOPARTICLES AND METHODS OF FORMING AND USING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/057114
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide a nanoparticle, such as a metal nanoparticle, coupled to a linker molecule to form a nanoparticle-linker construct. In an embodiment, a nanoparticle-linker construct may be further bound to a substrate to take advantage of one or more properties of the nanoparticle. In an embodiment, a functionalized nanoparticle (a nanoparticle having a reactive functionality) may be bound to a linker to form a functionalized nanoparticle-linker construct which may in-turn be bound to a substrate.
