Front Cover: Quantifying and Adjusting Plasmon‐Driven Nano‐Localized Temperature Field around Gold Nanorods for Nucleic Acids Amplification (Small Methods 5/2021)

In article number 2001254, Srikanth Singamaneni, Feng Xu, and co-workers demonstrated a novel method to quantify the nano-localized temperature field around AuNR by combining experimental measurement and numerical simulation. By precisely controlling the nano-localized temperature field, a plasmon-driven isothermal amplification is successfully performed in the nano-localized environment of AuNRs.
