Abstract: Au nanoring solutions of ∼1300 nm in localized surface plasmon resonance wavelength are fabricated and characterized. Their functions of image contrast enhancement in optical coherence tomography (OCT) and photothermal effect are demonstrated. Also, they are delivered into mouse liver for tracking their diffusion in the sample through continuous OCT scanning.
