Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Plasmon Spectroscopy of Nanosized Metal Particles
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of optical measurements to monitor electrochemical changes on the surface of nanosized metal particles is discussed within the Drude model, and the absorption spectrum of a metal sol in water is shown to be strongly affected by cathodic or anodic polarization, chemisorption, metal adatom deposition, and alloying.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calibration of rectangular atomic force microscope cantilevers
TL;DR: In this article, a method to determine the spring constant of a rectangular atomic force microscope cantilever is proposed that relies solely on the measurement of the resonant frequency and quality factor of the cantilevers in fluid (typically air), and knowledge of its plan view dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gold nanorods: Synthesis, characterization and applications
TL;DR: An overview of gold nanorod synthesis and properties can be found in this article, where the shape-dependent optical properties of rod-shaped nanoparticles are discussed and a theoretical analysis of the expected behavior is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Nanosized Gold−Silica Core−Shell Particles
TL;DR: In this paper, gold colloids have been homogeneously coated with silica using the silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane as a primer to render the gold surface vitreophilic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape control in gold nanoparticle synthesis
TL;DR: This tutorial review summarises recent research into the controlled growth of gold nanoparticles of different morphologies and discusses the various chemical mechanisms that have been proposed to explain anisotropic growth.
