Surface plasmon resonance of Au-Cu bimetallic nanoparticles predicted by a quasi-chemical model
Au-Cu alloys are functional materials with nonlinear optical applications. However, the optical properties of such alloys are difficult to predict due to the random mixing of materials. In this paper, we present a quasi-chemical model to simulate the optical properties of Au-Cu alloy systems based on the mixing of Gibbs free energy. This model is also able to predict the position of the surface...
متن کاملControlled Dealloying of Alloy Nanoparticles toward Optimization of Electrocatalysis on Spongy Metallic Nanoframes.
Atomic-level understanding of the structural transformations of multimetallic nanoparticles triggered by external stimuli is of vital importance to the enhancement of our capabilities to fine-tailor the key structural parameters and thereby to precisely tune the properties of the nanoparticles. Here, we show that, upon thermal annealing in a reducing atmosphere, Au@Cu2O core-shell nanoparticles...

متن کاملLow-temperature carbon monoxide oxidation with Au-Cu meatball-like cages prepared by galvanic replacement.
Owing to intrinsic scientific interest and its immense importance in catalysis technology, the oxidation of carbon monoxide has attracted much attention in the past few decades. The reaction is effectively catalyzed by certain noble metals, such as gold, platinum, palladium, and rhodium. Among all of these metals, gold exhibits an extraordinarily high activity because CO molecules adsorb strong...
متن کاملIn Vivo Neural Recording and Electrochemical Performance of Microelectrode Arrays Modified by Rough-Surfaced AuPt Alloy Nanoparticles with Nanoporosity
In order to reduce the impedance and improve in vivo neural recording performance of our developed Michigan type silicon electrodes, rough-surfaced AuPt alloy nanoparticles with nanoporosity were deposited on gold microelectrode sites through electro-co-deposition of Au-Pt-Cu alloy nanoparticles, followed by chemical dealloying Cu. The AuPt alloy nanoparticles modified gold microelectrode sites...
