Photothermal release of oligonucleotides from the surface of plasmonic nanoparticles represents a promising platform for spatiotemporal controlled drug delivery. Here we demonstrate the use of novel gold-silver-gold core-shell-shell (CSS) nanoparticles to study the photothermal cleaving and release of micro-RNA (miRNA) mimics or small interfering RNA (siRNA) under nearinfrared (NIR) irradiation. The furan-maleimide-based Diels-Alder adduct cleaves thermally above 60 °C and is used to bind siRNA to the colloidal nanoparticle surface in water. We investigate the photothermal cleaving kinetics of siRNA under different NIR laser powers using surface-sensitive time-dependent second-harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy. The photothermal release of siRNA from the surface of CSS nanoparticles is significantly higher than that from the surface of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) under similar experimental conditions. These results demonstrate that plasmonic CSS nanoparticles with photothermal cleaving linkers have important potential applications for nanoparticle-based NIR-mediated drug-delivery systems.
