Abstract:Direct encapsulation of graphene
shells on noble metal nanoparticles
via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been recently reported as
a unique way to design and fabricate new plasmonic heterostructures.
But currently, the fundamental nature of the growth mechanism of graphene
layers on metal nanostructures is still unknown. Herein, we report
a systematic investigation on the CVD growth of graphene-encapsulated
Au nanoparticles (Au@G) by combining an experimental parameter study
and theoretical modeling. We st… Show more
