Journal ArticleDOI
From Artificial Atoms to Nanocrystal Molecules: Preparation and Properties of More Complex Nanostructures
TL;DR: In this paper, the nature of the coupling between nanocrystal atoms and its response to vibrations and deformations of the nanocrystals molecule bonds are discussed. And the authors discuss synthetic approaches, predicted and observed physical properties, and prospects and challenges toward this new class of materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Encapsulation of Metal (Au, Ag, Pt) Nanoparticles into the Mesoporous SBA-15 Structure
Ji Zhu,Zoltán Kónya,Víctor F. Puntes,Imre Kiricsi,C. X. Miao,Joel W. Ager,A. Paul Alivisatos,Gabor A. Somorjai +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mesopore channels expanded in order to accommodate the metal particles in the 2−20 nm range, regardless of the size of the nanoparticles and regardless of which metal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of discrete nanoparticle-DNA conjugates for plasmonic applications.
TL;DR: Conjugate purity is demonstrated by hybridizing complementary conjugates to form discrete structures, which are visualized by TEM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revealing Bismuth Oxide Hollow Nanoparticle Formation by the Kirkendall Effect
TL;DR: Observation reveals that defects, temperature, sizes of the particles, and so forth can affect the diffusion of reactive species and modify the kinetics of the hollowing process.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparison of Photocatalytic Activities of Gold Nanoparticles Following Plasmonic and Interband Excitation and a Strategy for Harnessing Interband Hot Carriers for Solution Phase Photocatalysis
Jie Zhao,Son C. Nguyen,Son C. Nguyen,Rong Ye,Rong Ye,Baihua Ye,Horst Weller,Gabor A. Somorjai,A. Paul Alivisatos,F. Dean Toste,F. Dean Toste +10 more
TL;DR: The quantitative results show that interband transitions more efficiently generate hot carriers and that those carriers exhibit higher reactivity as compared to those generated solely by LSPR.
