Measuring the Optical Absorption Cross Sections of Au−Ag Nanocages and Au Nanorods by Photoacoustic Imaging

TL;DR: The ratios of absorption to extinction obtained from experimental and theoretical approaches agreed well, demonstrating the potential use of this method in determining the optical absorption and scattering properties of gold nanostructures and other types of nanomaterials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissolving Ag from Au−Ag Alloy Nanoboxes with H2O2: A Method for Both Tailoring the Optical Properties and Measuring the H2O2 Concentration

TL;DR: This article describes a method for generating Au-based nanocages with controlled wall thickness, porosity, and optical properties by dissolving Ag from Au-Ag alloy nanoboxes with H(2)O(2).
Journal ArticleDOI

A facile, water-based synthesis of highly branched nanostructures of silver.

TL;DR: A mechanistic study of the growth process revealed that the silver branches grew from a bulbous seed formed through aggregation, and that by changing the concentrations of the reagents, the degree of particle branching could be altered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Template-assisted self-assembly: a versatile approach to complex micro- and nanostructures

TL;DR: Template-assisted self-assembly (TASA) is a process in which colloidal aggregates with well-controlled sizes, shapes, and structures are fabricated by dewetting aqueous dispersions of building blocks across surfaces patterned with two-dimensional arrays of templates as mentioned in this paper.
