Polyoxometalate based soft chemical route for preparation of Pt nanorods and self-assemblies
TLDR
In this paper, a soft chemical route is described for the preparation of platinum nanorods and self-assemblies over photochemically reduced polyoxometalate (silicotungstate) containing composite films.Abstract:
A soft chemical route is described for the preparation of platinum nanorods and self-assemblies over photochemically reduced polyoxometalate (silicotungstate) containing composite films. Transmission electron microscopy shows that the diameters of the platinum nanorods are around 55–60 nm. The formation of platinum nanorods on solid-liquid interface reactions was explained on the basis of single site growth mechanism and diffusion limitation aggregation process.read more

Unidirectional Plasmon Propagation in Metallic Nanowires
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the selective coupling of photons into the plasmon mode of a 20 nm diameter nanowire, which then propagates in a nonemissive fashion down the wire length before being emitted as an elastically scattered photon at distal end.

Electronic properties of small metallic particles
TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum size effects in small particles are analyzed theoretically from the point of view of the statistics of discrete energy levels, and the existing experimental results are discussed, where the critical fields in small metallic particles, the magnetic field dependence of their microscopic properties, and fluctuations in small superconductors are discussed.

Ag nanowire formation within mesoporous silica
TL;DR: In this paper, uniform Ag nanowires have been synthesized within nanoscale channels of mesoporous silica SBA-15 by a simple chemical approach, which involves AgNO3 impregnation, followed by thermal decomposition.
