Figure 6
Maximum temperature of a single Au nanoparticle versus absorbed fluence of a pulsed laser. Red and blue lines are the theoretically calculated temperatures of Au nanoparticles with diameters of 60 nm (red line) and 100 nm (blue line). The solid red triangle is the temperature obtained by Ref.48, the solid red rhombus is the temperature obtained by Ref.49, the solid red circles are the temperatures obtained by Ref.50, the solid blue circles are the temperatures obtained by Ref.49, and the solid blue rhombi are the temperatures obtained by Ref.51. The theoretically calculated maximum temperatures obtained by Eq. (3) agree well with these previously reported temperature values.
