@conference{10902/12006, year = {2016}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/12006}, abstract = {Plasmonics in the UV-range constitutes a new challenge due to the increasing demand to detect, identify and destroy biological toxins, enhance biological imaging, and characterize semiconductor devices at the nanometer scale. Silver and aluminum have an e cient plasmonic performance in the near UV region, but oxidation reduces its performance in this range. Recent studies point out rhodium as one of the most promising metals for this purpose: it has a good plasmonic response in the UV and, as gold in the visible, it presents a low tendency to oxidation. Moreover, its easy fabrication through chemical means and its potential for photocatalytic applications, makes this material very attractive for building plasmonic tools in the UV. In this work, we will show an overview of our recent collaborative research with rhodium nanocubes (NC) for Plasmonics in the UV.}, organization = {This research was partly supported by MICINN (Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation) through project FIS2013-45854-P.}, publisher = {SPIE Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers}, publisher = {Proc. of SPIE Vol. 9884 98841E-1}, title = {Plasmonics in the UV range with Rhodium nanocubes}, author = {Zhang, X. and Gutiérrez Vela, Yael and Li, P. and Barreda Gómez, Ángela Inmaculada and Watson, A.
