“…Through variations to the (i) size, shape, and composition of the core, (ii) the number, size, composition, and position of satellites, and (iii) the core–satellite and satellite–satellite spacing, there exists a design space that gives rise to an overall architectural diversity that expresses itself in the resulting structure–property relationships. 14,18–26 Nanospheres, 14,18,19 nanorods, 20–22 nanocubes, 23 nanotriangles, 24 and nanostars 25,26 have, for example, all been demonstrated as core materials utilizing either Au or Ag nanostructures as component materials. In another impressive demonstration, Trinh et al 27 forwarded a combinatorial approach that realizes a complex assortment of substrate-based core–satellite structures from nine different building blocks.…”
