چکیده

Electrostatically stabilized monolayer shells of metal-oxide cluster anions (polyoxometalates, or POMs) on the surfaces of ca. 8 nm tetrahedral and octahedral gold nanocrystals regioselectively direct water-soluble alkanethiolate ligands to the corners and edges of the gold polyhedra.

A distinct platinum growth mode on shaped gold nanocrystals.

An ultralow amount of platinum can be deposited on the gold surface using copper underpotential deposition and galvanic exchange. The platinum tended to deposit as layers on the octahedral gold nanocrystals with an Au(111) surface, while it aggregated and formed small particles on the cubic gold nanocrystals with an Au(100) surface.

Investigation of facet effects on the catalytic activity of Cu2O nanocrystals for efficient regioselective synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles.

Cubic, octahedral, and rhombic dodecahedral Cu2O nanocrystals bound by respectively {100}, {111}, and {110} facets were successfully employed to catalyze the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction for the regioselective synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles. Surfactant-free nanocrystals having the same total surface area were used for the catalysis. Strongly facet-dependent organocatalytic activity...

Shape-dependent electrocatalytic activity of monodispersed gold nanocrystals toward glucose oxidation.

We systematically explore the shape-dependent catalytic activities of Au nanocrystals toward glucose oxidation in alkaline electrolytes, which is strongly dependent on the shape of the Au nanocrystals. The {100}-bounded cubic Au nanocrystals are significantly more active than the {110}-bounded rhombic dodecahedral and {111}-bounded octahedral Au nanocrystals.

Faceting of nanocrystals during chemical transformation: from solid silver spheres to hollow gold octahedra.

We demonstrate that performing a replacement reaction on single crystalline Ag nanospheres of approximately 10 nm in diameter in an organic solvent produces hollow Au nanocrystals with an octahedral shape. Different from those Au shells made by starting with Ag particles about 1 order of magnitude larger, which largely reproduce that of the sacrificial Ag counterparts, the hollow nanocrystals o...

Controlled synthesis and characterization of the enhanced local field of octahedral Au nanocrystals.

Octahedral Au nanocrystals with localized surface plasmon-assisted enhancing optical properties can be prepared in aqueous solution via the forced reduction of Au ions by ascorbic acid through the addition of NaOH.
