Seed-Mediated Synthesis of Gold Nanocrystals with Systematic Shape Evolution from Cubic to Trisoctahedral and Rhombic Dodecahedral Structures

Wu, Hsin-Lun, Kuo, Chun-Hong, Huang, Michael H.·2010·Langmuir

Abstract

We report a seed-mediated synthesis method for the preparation of gold nanocrystals with systematic shape evolution from truncated cubic to cubic, trisoctahedral, and rhombic dodecahedral structures in aqueous solution for the first time. Nanocrystals with transitional morphologies were also synthesized. The combination of using cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) surfactant and a very small amount of NaBr to control the bromide concentration in the growth solution was found to be critical to the formation of nanocubes. Variation in the volume of ascorbic acid added to the growth solution enabled the fine control of nanocrystal morphology. Nanocubes and rhombic dodecahedra with controlled sizes of 30-75 nm were prepared by adjusting the volume of the seed solution added to the growth solution. They can self-assemble into ordered packing structures on substrates because of their uniform sizes. XRD, TEM, and UV-vis absorption characterization of the different products synthesized have been performed. By increasing the bromide concentration 5-fold that used to make the nanocubes, unusual right bipyramids of gold bounded by six {100} faces were produced. The high product purity and excellent size control of this facile synthetic approach should make these novel gold nanostructures be readily available for a wide range of studies.

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.
