Controlled nucleation for the regulation of the particle size in monodisperse gold suspensions

G. Frens
- 01 Jan 1973 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a series of monodisperse suspensions of the same chemical composition but of rather different particle sizes was used to study particle size dependent phenomena, such as Brownian motion, light scattering, sedimentation and electrophoresis of small particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemistry and properties of nanocrystals of different shapes.

TL;DR: The interest in nanoscale materials stems from the fact that new properties are acquired at this length scale and, equally important, that these properties are equally important.
