A Droplet-Reactor System Capable of Automation for the Continuous and Scalable Production of Noble-Metal Nanocrystals
TL;DR: The design and construction of a droplet-reactor system that include new features such as a homemade unit for the automatic separation of silicone oil from the aqueous phase as well as a cross-flow filtration unit forThe effective purification and concentration of the nanocrystals are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
One‐Dimensional Nanostructures of Metals: Large‐Scale Synthesis and Some Potential Applications
TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent developments in solution-phase synthesis of one-dimensional nanostructures of metals is presented, highlighting the electrical and plasmonic properties of these metal nanostructure and discuss their potential applications in nanoscale devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seed-mediated synthesis of silver nanocrystals with controlled sizes and shapes in droplet microreactors separated by air.
TL;DR: It is believed that the air-driven droplet generation device can be extended to other noble metals for the production of nanocrystals with controlled sizes and shapes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Edge-spreading lithography: use of patterned photoresist structures to direct the spreading of alkanethiols on gold.
TL;DR: Edge-spreading lithography has been extended to fabricate gold structures with different geometries and feature sizes on silicon substrates by using photoresist structures patterned on a thin film of gold to transport alkanethiol molecules from an elastomeric stamp to the gold surface where they formed a self-assembled monolayer along the edge of each resist feature.
Journal ArticleDOI
General Approach to the Synthesis of Heterodimers of Metal Nanoparticles through Site-Selected Protection and Growth.
TL;DR: This work demonstrates a general approach to the fabrication of hetero-dimers of metal nanoparticles by leveraging the concept of site-selected growth under the protection of an inert material, and prepares Au-Ag, Au-pd, and Au-Pt hetero -dimers and further investigated their plasmonic properties.
