Ligand-mediated self-assembly of polymer-enveloped gold nanoparticle chains and networks.

چکیده
We demonstrate a universal approach to assemble gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) into ordered robust nanostructures. Colloidal AuNPs are partially coated by thiol-containing ligands and then destabilised into anisotropic superstructures. In situ polymerization of the surface attached ligands produces enveloped nanoparticle networks with retained nanoplasmonic properties and enhanced stability.

Nanoparticles were called "artificial atoms" about two decades ago due to their ability to organize into regular lattices or supracrystals. Their self-assembly into free-standing, two-dimensional (2D) nanoparticle arrays enables the generation of 2D metamaterials for novel applications in sensing, nanophotonics and energy fields. However, their controlled fabrication is nontrivial due to the co...
