One‐Step Synthesis of Large‐Aspect‐Ratio Single‐Crystalline Gold Nanorods by Using CTPAB and CTBAB Surfactants
Xiaoshan Kou,Shuzhuo Zhang,Shuzhuo Zhang,Chia-Kuang Tsung,Chia-Kuang Tsung,Zhi Yang,Man Hau Yeung,Galen D. Stucky,Ling-Dong Sun,Jianfang Wang,Chun-Hua Yan +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first report of the preparation by using wet-chemistry methods of single-crystalline Au nanorods with aspect ratios larger than 15, and they are seen to be oriented in either the [100] or [110] direction under transmission electron microscopy imaging, irrespective of their sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Curvature-Directed Assembly of Gold Nanocubes, Nanobranches, and Nanospheres
TL;DR: The fact that the curvature-directed assembly occurs for both the single-crystalline nanocubes and the multiply twinned nanobranches strongly suggests that the preferential bonding of glutathione to the curved sites is due to the less ordered surfactant bilayer at the curved Sites than on the flat surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape- and Orientation-Controlled Gold Nanoparticles Formed within Mesoporous Silica Nanofibers†
Chia-Kuang Tsung,Wenbin Hong,Qihui Shi,Xiaoshan Kou,Man Hau Yeung,Jianfang Wang,Galen D. Stucky +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, mesoporous silica nanofibers with longitudinal pore channels are synthesized in high yields using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as the structure-directing agent in hydrobromic acid solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporation of Gold Nanorods and Their Enhancement of Fluorescence in Mesostructured Silica Thin Films
Zhi Yang,Weihai Ni,Xiaoshan Kou,Shuzhuo Zhang,Zhenhua Sun,Lingdong Sun,Jianfang Wang,Chun-Hua Yan +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a mesostructured composite film containing both Au nanorods and fluorophores has been fabricated, which can be treated as being embedded in a uniform array of fluorophore.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical Fiber-Excited Surface Plasmon Resonance Spectroscopy of Single and Ensemble Gold Nanorods
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically characterize the dependence of the scattering spectra of individual nanorods on the refractive index of the surrounding medium, and they find that as the index is increased, the spectra red shift steadily.
