Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering the Properties of Metal Nanostructures via Galvanic Replacement Reactions.
Claire M. Cobley,Younan Xia +1 more
TL;DR: The variety of templates used for galvanic replacement reactions to engineer highly tunable nanostructures for a variety of applications and how the structural details have interesting effects on the ultimate product are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Dimers Can Be Formed by Dewetting Half-Shells of Gold Deposited on the Surfaces of Spherical Oxide Colloids
TL;DR: This method provides another route to asymmetric dimers made of colloidal particles that could be different in size, chemical composition, surface functionality, density or sign of surface charge, bulk property, or a combination of these properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative Etching and Its Role in Manipulating the Nucleation and Growth of Noble-Metal Nanocrystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the critical components needed for oxidative etching, as well as methods for enabling or preventing oxidative etching in a synthesis of metal nanocrystals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pd—Pt Bimetallic Nanodendrites with High Activity for Oxygen Reduction.
Byungkwon Lim,Majiong Jiang,Pedro H. C. Camargo,Eun Chul Cho,Jing Tao,Xianmao Lu,Yimei Zhu,Younan Xia +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesized Pd-Pt bimetallic nanodendrites consisting of a dense array of Pt branches on a Pd core by reducing K2PtCl4 with Lascorbic acid in the presence of uniform Pd nanocrystal seeds in an aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleation and growth mechanisms for Pd-Pt bimetallic nanodendrites and their electrocatalytic properties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided new insights into the nucleation and growth mechanisms underlying the formation of bimetallic nanodendrites that are characterized by a dense array of Pt branches anchored to a Pd nanocrystal core.
