X-Ray Studies of the Structure and Electronic Behavior of Alkanethiolate-Capped Gold Nanoparticles: The Interplay of Size and Surface Effects

Zhang, Peng, Sham, T. K.·2003·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

We report a study of the structure and electronic properties of a series of thiol-capped Au nanoparticles (NP) of nominal sizes of 1.6, 2.4, and 4.0 nm. Transmission electron microscopy, x-ray powder diffraction, x-ray absorption fine structure, and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy have been used to investigate the size-dependent systematics of lattice contraction and charge redistribution of these NPs. It is found that the lattice contracts and the d charge at the Au atom site depletes relative to bulk Au as the size of the NP decreases. The implication of these observations is discussed in terms of the interplay of quantum-size and surface effect.

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.
