Effects of surfactants on electrochemically prepared Ag nanostructures.

چکیده
The morphology and corrosion behavior of electrochemically prepared Ag nanostructures (NSs) have been examined in the absence and presence of potassium citrate, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween-20). These additives give rise to morphologically distinct Ag NSs. The presence of citrate increases the dissolution of Ag and creates finer nanostructured Ag surfaces with more cavities, while Tween-20 protects the Ag surface against corrosion in alkaline solution and generates spherical non-packed nanofeatured Ag surfaces.

Crystal overgrowth on gold nanorods: tuning the shape, facet, aspect ratio, and composition of the nanorods.
Electrochemically prepared Au nanorods were used as seeds for the overgrowth of thin shells of gold, silver, and palladium by using a mild reducing agent, ascorbic acid, in the presence of surfactants at ambient condition. The unique crystal facets of the starting nanorods results in anisotropic crystal overgrowth. The overgrowth rates along different crystallographical directions can be furthe...
