Journal ArticleDOI
Shape‐Controlled Synthesis of Metal Nanocrystals: Simple Chemistry Meets Complex Physics?
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of current research activities that center on the shape-controlled synthesis of metal nanocrystals, including a brief introduction to nucleation and growth within the context of metal Nanocrystal synthesis, followed by a discussion of the possible shapes that aMetal nanocrystal might take under different conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gold nanocages: synthesis, properties, and applications.
Sara E. Skrabalak,Jingyi Chen,Yugang Sun,Xianmao Lu,Leslie Au,Claire M. Cobley,Younan Xia,Younan Xia +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that changing the amount of metal precursor added to the suspension of Ag nanocubes is a simple means of tuning both the composition and the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the metal nanocages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in nanoparticle synthesis
Kallum M. Koczkur,Stefanos Mourdikoudis,Stefanos Mourdikoudis,Lakshminarayana Polavarapu,Lakshminarayana Polavarapu,Sara E. Skrabalak +5 more
TL;DR: The concluding guidelines provided herein should enable new nanostructures to be accessed facilely, and the properties of PVP-capped NPs for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), assembly, catalysis, and more are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facile synthesis of Ag nanocubes and Au nanocages
TL;DR: This protocol describes a method for the synthesis of Ag nanocubes and their subsequent conversion into Au nanocages via the galvanic replacement reaction, which can serve as sacrificial templates for the preparation of Au Nanocages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical Synthesis of Novel Plasmonic Nanoparticles
TL;DR: This work illustrates how oxidative etching and kinetic control can be employed to manipulate the shapes and optical responses of plasmonic nanoparticles made of either Ag or Pd.
