Gold nanorods (AuNRs) possess unique optical properties which make them good contrast agents for optical microscopy. Their longitudinal plasmon resonance peak can be easily tuned from red to near infrared wavelength by increasing their aspect ratio to match the wavelengths of different imaging modal...
