Abstract
The optical force, photothermal effect and enhanced electric field induced by the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of plasmonic nanoparticles have been widely applied in nanomanipulation. Among them, the manipulation based on photothermal effect has attracted increasing interest because of its relatively larger manipulation radius and stronger driven force. In this paper, several typical approaches to manipulate nanoparticles using photothermal properties of metal nanomaterials are concluded, divided into direct ones and indirect ones. Among the indirect ones, taking Au as an example, there exist single Au NP-based schemes, multiple Au NPs-based schemes and Au nano-island-based schemes. At last, some problems unsolved are raised and some outlooks are suggested.
