Abstract

We synthesized anisotropic Pd nanoplates for use as a novel refractive index (RI) sensing material in the visible region. The nanoplates showed an extinction peak that was attributed to the excitation of the localized surface plasmon resonance at ~620 nm in the visible region. It was found that the peak was red-shifted with increasing the RI of the surrounding medium. The susceptibility was calculated to be 250 nm per RI unit, comparable to some anisotropic Au nanoparticles that are excellent RI sensing materials.
