Abstract:Core-shell Au-Ag nanostructures (Au-AgNSs) are prepared by a seed-meditated growth, i.e., by a two-step process. The synthetic parameters greatly influence the morphologies of the final bimetallic Au-AgNSs, their stability and application potential as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. Direct comparison of several types of Au NPs possessing different surface species and serving as seeds in Au-AgNSs synthesis is the main objective of this paper. Borohydride-reduced (with varying stages of boro… Show more
“…As Ag + gradually increased, covering the entire surface of tetrapod AuNSs, the whole charge of core-shell Au@AgNSs became positive. 48 The particle size distribution plot (Fig. 3D) signies that the synthesized core-shell Au@AgNSs demonstrated a relatively uniform distribution, with a diagonal size of about 300 nm.…”

“…It is the LSPR, which results from d-d band transitions, that makes Au and Ag nanostructures so well-suited for use in the medical field. 106 Experimentally, metal nanostructure colloids are a highly dispersed object system, and their colour or spectrum shows the average effect of light response of a large number of nanoparticles. Therefore, the homogeneity of the sample in terms of morphology and size is very important.…”

For noble metals, such as gold (Au) and silver (Ag), it is well-known that surface plasmons of their nanocrystals have significant spatial confinement and propagation loss due to the strong...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
