ABSTRACT
Dual probe porphyrin-gold nanorod polyelectrolyte microcapsules were developed to explore the enhancing effects of a plasmonic interface of self-assembled gold nanoparticles in the fluorescence emission from porphyrins loaded into the capsules' core. An analysis of fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) data reports a notable 105-106-fold increase in the maximum detected photon rates from diffraction-limited spots and an overall six-fold increase in fluorescence as averaged over the whole microcapsule area. Large emission enhancements were correlated with decreases in fluorescence lifetimes. The microcapsule's design proved effective in achieving high fluorescent hybrids and may shed light on new possibilities for advanced materials imaging applications.
