Mixed Silver/Gold Colloids: A Study of Their Formation, Morphology, and Surface-Enhanced Raman Activity

Rivas, L., Sanchez-Cortes, S., García-Ramos, J. V., Morcillo, G.·2000·Langmuir

Abstract

Ag-coated Au and Au-coated Ag colloidal particles were prepared by deposition of Ag or Au through chemical reduction on Au or Ag colloids, respectively. Different amounts of the depositing metal were employed in order to obtain different compositions of the Au 100 - x Ag x and Ag 100 - y Au y resulting particles. The obtained colloids were characterized by UV−vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. A different formation mechanism was deduced for the different mixed colloids obtained by this procedure. Moreover, the activity of these colloids in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), that is, the SERS enhancement factor, was checked by using pyridine as an adsorbate probe. The SERS excitation profiles for each colloid were investigated in order to obtain information about the activity of these substrates at different excitation wavelengths as well as to estimate the relative exposed area of each metal in every composite colloid.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
