Synthesis and Characterization of Mesoscopic Hollow Spheres of Ceramic Materials with Functionalized Interior Surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, mesoscopic hollow spheres of ceramic materials whose interior surfaces were functionalized by nanoscopic objects were generated by templating sol−gel precursors against three-dimensional arrays of polystyrene beads whose surfaces had been derivatized with submonolayers of the objects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microcontact Printing of Alkanethiols on Silver and Its Application in Microfabrication

TL;DR: In this article, microcontact printing was used to generate patterned self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiolates on the surfaces of evaporated films of copper, which could be directly used as ultrathin resists that protected the underlying copper from etching in aqueous solutions of FeCl3/HCl or FeCl 3/NH4Cl.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetically controlled overgrowth of Ag or Au on Pd nanocrystal seeds: from hybrid dimers to nonconcentric and concentric bimetallic nanocrystals.

TL;DR: A systematic study of the nucleation and growth of Ag (and Au) on Pd nanocrystal seeds to provide a promising route to the fabrication of bimetallic nanocrystals with novel structures and properties for applications in plasmonics, catalysis, and other areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent Developments in Shape-Controlled Synthesis of Silver Nanocrystals

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that citrate and PVP selectively bind to Ag(111) and Ag(100) surfaces, respectively, and thus favor the formation of Ag nanocrystals enclosed preferentially by {111} or {100} facets.
