Abstract
A method for the amplification of nucleic acids, in which nanoparticles in a reaction volume transfer heat to their environment through excitation. The method comprises a step of providing nanoparticles with the nucleic acids in a reaction volume and one or more heating steps. In at least one of the heating steps, the heating is achieved at least partially through the excitation of the nanoparticles. The interval of the excitation is chosen to be shorter or equal to a critical excitation time.
