Abstract

The size and shape dependent electronic and chemical properties of metal nanoparticles has drawn the attention of chemists, physicists, biologists, and engineers who wish to use them for the development of new generation nanodevices. In this article, we report the synthesis of gold nanotriangles using tamarind leaf extract as the reducing agent. On treating aqueous chloroauric acid solution with tamarind leaf extract, rapid reduction of the chloroaurate ions is observed leading to the formation of flat and thin single crystalline gold nanotriangles. Atomic force microscopy analysis of the gold nanotriangles indicated that they ranged in thickness from 20 to 40 nm. These gold nanotriangles with unique and highly anisotropic planer shapes might find application in photonics, optoelectronics, and optical sensing. We investigated the effect of different organic solvent vapors like methanol, benzene and acetone on the conductivity of tamarind leaf extract reduced gold nanotriangles. I‐V characteristics measurement of these nanotriangles was done in presence of these organic solvent vapors. The observed characteristics suggest the application of gold nanotriangles to future chemical sensors.

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.
