  1. The photothermal coefficient β is indicated at the measured wavelength of 532 nm. The diameters were measured from TEM images.
  2. aFor the Au60-Pd-sat system, the diameter in the table corresponds to the core size, without considering the satellites.
  3. bIn the calculations of the absorption cross-section, a core-satellite gap size of 1 nm was used, as described in Supplementary Note 12.
