Ordered nanocrystal/silica particles self-assembled from nanocrystal micelles and silicate.

چکیده
Ordered gold nanocrystal/silica particles were synthesized through self-assembly of nanocrystal micelles and silicate. Depending on the use of surfactants, and the kinetic conditions of silica hydrolysis and condensation, well-shaped and irregularly-shaped silica particles were formed, inside which the nanocrystals self-organized in a face-centered cubic mesostructure.

Self-assembly of ordered, robust, three-dimensional gold nanocrystal/silica arrays.
We report the synthesis of a new nanocrystal (NC) mesophase through self-assembly of water-soluble NC micelles with soluble silica. The mesophase comprises gold nanocrystals arranged within a silica matrix in a face-centered cubic lattice with cell dimensions that are adjustable through control of the nanocrystal diameter and/or the alkane chain lengths of the primary alkanethiol stabilizing li...

متن کاملDynamic investigation of gold nanocrystal assembly using in situ grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering.
Here we investigate the dynamic self-assembly pathway of ordered gold nanocrystal arrays during the self-assembly of gold nanocrystal micelles, with and without the presence of colloidal silica precursors, using grazing-incidence X-ray scattering performed at a synchrotron source. With silica precursors present, a lattice with rhombohedral symmetry is formed from the partial collapse of a face-...
متن کاملOptical and electrical properties of self-assembled, ordered gold nanocrystal/silica thin films prepared by sol–gel processing
Highly ordered gold nanocrystal (NC)/silica films are synthesized by self-assembly of water-soluble gold NC micelles and silica using a sol–gel spin coating technique. The optical properties are analyzed using ellipsometry and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. Transmission and absorption spectra were measured for wavelengths ranging from 200 to 2000 nm. The absorption spectra show a strong surf...
متن کاملSynthesis of organo-silane functionalized nanocrystal micelles and their self-assembly.
We report a general method to synthesize gold nanocrystal micelles with organo-silane headgroups. The method involves encapsulation of monodisperse, hydrophobic gold nanocrystals within the core of a micelle of an amphiphilic silane precursor. Formation and stability of monodisperse gold NC micelles have been confirmed using UV-visible spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Self-ass...
