The present thesis titled “Molecular Modulation of Material Properties: Stud- ies on Nanoparticles, Nanoassemblies and Low Molecular Mass Gelator” deals with the preparation, characterization, and investigations into the ...

Metallic nanostructures can exhibit plasmonic modes due to coherent oscillations of the free electrons under electromagnetic excitations. Therefore, they find diverse applications in optical sensing, photonics, and ...

Nanoparticle-based biomedical applications in disease diagnostics, site targeting, drug delivery, etc., have been pursued vigorously with the hope of finding better solutions than conventional diagnostics and therapeutics. ...
