Abstract

In article number 1803282, Patrizia Canton, Fiorenzo Vetrone, and co-workers synthesize, via a green approach, water-dispersible plasmonic copper sulfide nanoparticles as highly efficient light-to-heat transducers featuring a readily tailorable surface. Upon comparing the results from the experimental assessment and mathematical modelling of the nanoparticles' optical and photothermal properties, the limitations of the macroscopic methods for heat conversion efficiency evaluation are discussed.
