I just want to find a simple and easy way to coat some nano-materils(such as Gold Nanorod, quantum dot and so on), it can be a microphere or microdroplet whicn has the good biocompatibility. Help me please!
Try to spry a molten Gold, via a nuzzle, against an appropriate spry of coating , in a pressurized vapor form , on a sub-freezed substrate or a sub-freezed chamber.
If you want to encapsulate your particles with silica, I recommend a microemulsion method. It is very robust and works with almost any type of nanoparticles. Enclosed are two examples, but we did this with many other types as well (just have a look at my publications list).
