Photothermal conversion efficiency (η_T) of NPs.

Notes: (A) Temperature of P1-PMD NPs, PEDOT-PMD NPs, Clevios PH1000, GNRs, and GNSs suspensions at equal OD that were irradiated with an 808-nm laser at 2 W/cm² until steady state and then allowed to cool. (B) η_T of all NPs. Error bar represents standard deviation for sample replicates (n=3).

Abbreviations: GNRs, gold nanorods; GNSs, gold nanoshells; NPs, nanoparticles; OD, optical density; P1, poly(diethyl-4,4′-{[2,5-bis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-1,4-phenylene]bis(oxy)} dibutanoate); PEDOT, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene); DBSA, 4-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid; PSS-co-MA, poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid); P1-PMD, P1:PSS-co-MA:DBSA; PEDOT-PMD, PEDOT:PSS-co-MA:DBSA.
