Gold Nanocages: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications

TL;DR: In this article, a simple galvanic replacement reaction between solutions containing metal precursor salts and Ag nanostructures prepared through polyol reduction is described, with the reduced metal depositing epitaxially on the surface of the Ag nanocubes, adopting their underlying cubic form.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical transformations of nanostructured materials

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent progress in this area by dividing the reactions into four catagories, formation of alloy, galvanic replacement, cation exchange, and anion exchange, according to the type of reaction involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabrication of Three-Dimensional Macroporous Membranes with Assemblies of Microspheres as Templates

TL;DR: Assemblies of polymer beads were used as templates to produce macroporous membranes of polymers and ceramics as mentioned in this paper, which consist of spherical pores whose sizes could be precisely controlled in...
Journal ArticleDOI

Gold nanocages as contrast agents for spectroscopic optical coherence tomography.

TL;DR: Monodispersed gold nanocages of an approximately 35 nm edge length exhibit strong optical resonance, with the peak wavelength tunable in the near-infrared range, revealing an absorption cross section approximately 5 orders of magnitude larger than conventional dyes.
