Journal ArticleDOI
Silane Ligand Exchange to Make Hydrophobic Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles Water-Dispersible
Randy De Palma,Sara Peeters,Margriet Van Bael,Heidi Van den Rul,Kristien Bonroy,Wim Laureyn,Jules Mullens,Gustaaf Borghs,Guido Maes +8 more
TL;DR: Ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were functionalized with a variety of silanes bearing different functional endgroups to render them stable with respect to aggregation and keep them well-dispersed in aqueous media as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosensing based on light absorption of nanoscaled gold and silver particles
Filip Frederix,Jean-Michel Friedt,Kang-Hoon Choi,Wim Laureyn,T. Andrew Campitelli,Dirk Mondelaers,Guido Maes,Gustaaf Borghs +7 more
TL;DR: The presented type of biosensing can be a cost-effective and easy to use alternative to conventional biosensing techniques, and also the interband absorption of the particles changes, will be demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical detection of confined gap plasmons in metal-insulator-metal waveguides
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector was used to detect gap plasmons in a metal-insulator-metal waveguide and characterize them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interplay between the magnetic and transport properties in the III-V diluted magnetic semiconductor Ga1-xMnxAs
A. Van Esch,L. Van Bockstal,J. De Boeck,G. Verbanck,A. van Steenbergen,Peter J. Wellmann,B. Grietens,Ria Bogaerts,Fritz Herlach,Gustaaf Borghs +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-temperature molecular-beam epitaxy growth procedure was used to obtain a III-V diluted magnetic semiconductor with Mn concentrations up to 9% for a critical temperature of 0.03-0.05%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specific Cell Targeting with Nanobody Conjugated Branched Gold Nanoparticles for Photothermal Therapy
Bieke Van de Broek,Nick Devoogdt,Antoine D'Hollander,Hannah-Laura Gijs,Karolien Jans,Liesbet Lagae,Liesbet Lagae,Serge Muyldermans,Guido Maes,Gustaaf Borghs +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that this new type of bioconjugated branched gold nanoparticles are effective antigen-targeted photothermal therapeutic agents for cancer treatment.
