A distinct platinum growth mode on shaped gold nanocrystals.

چکیده
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.

Surfactant-assisted, shape-controlled synthesis of gold nanocrystals.
The shape control of gold nanocrystals has attracted extensive research interest because of their unique shape-dependent properties and widespread applications. Surfactants have been frequently used in the shape-controlled synthesis of gold nanocrystals in solution. In this feature article, we summarize some of the emerging colloidal approaches towards shape-tailored gold nanocrystals with the ...
متن کاملOctahedral-shaped perovskite nanocrystals and their visible-light photocatalytic activity.
Octahedral-shaped perovskite PbTiO3 nanocrystals (PT OCT) with well-defined {111} facets exposed have been successfully synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method by using LiNO3 as an ion surfactant. The Li-O bond on the surface of PT OCT nanocrystals is essential to the stability of such nanocrystals and also results in a dramatic high visible-light photocatalytic activity.
متن کاملBonding pathways of gold nanocrystals in solution.
Nanocrystal bonding is an important phenomenon in crystal growth and nanoscale welding. Here, we show that for gold nanocrystals bonding in solution can follow two distinct pathways: (1) coherent, defect-free bonding occurs when two nanocrystals attach with their lattices aligned to within a critical angle; and (2) beyond this critical angle, defects form at the interfaces where the nanocrystal...
متن کاملIn situ and ex situ studies of platinum nanocrystals: growth and evolution in solution.
In situ studies on the growth and evolution of platinum nanocrystals in solution were carried out using synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Ex situ low- and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to investigate the nanocrystal morphologies through the different growth stages. In a reaction with low precursor concentration, both XRD and TEM results sho...
متن کاملObservation of single colloidal platinum nanocrystal growth trajectories.
Understanding of colloidal nanocrystal growth mechanisms is essential for the syntheses of nanocrystals with desired physical properties. The classical model for the growth of monodisperse nanocrystals assumes a discrete nucleation stage followed by growth via monomer attachment, but has overlooked particle-particle interactions. Recent studies have suggested that interactions between particles...
