Abstract Plasmonic noble metal nanoparticles can significantly interact with closed fluorophores, resulting in fluorescence enhancement. The enhancement relies on near-field enhancement due to SPR induced by metal nanoparticles and is dependent upon the distance between the fluorophore and the plasmonic surface. We report on the metal-enhanced fluorescence of hybrid nanoparticles composed of silver nanoparticles and a promising fluorophore, gold nanoclusters. The photoluminescence spectra of gold nanoclusters-adsorbed to Ag@SiO2 nanoparticles have been investigated systematically with a variation of spatial distances, metal sizes, and excitation wavelengths. The strongest enhancement is observed when the silica shell of the Ag@SiO2 nanoparticle is 6 nm, resulting in an approximately 7-fold increase in emission intensity and a 10-fold increase in quantum yield with a 2-fold reduce in decay time compared to free gold nanoclusters. We have tried to correlate the radiative, metal-modified radiative, nonradiative decay rate with distance-dependence metal-enhanced fluorescence effect. We have also investigated that gold nanoclusters-adsorbed Ag@SiO2 nanoparticles are able to detect heavy metal ions with better sensitive more than free gold nanoclusters.
