The roles of silver ions and halides (chloride, bromide, and iodide) in the seed-mediated
synthesis of gold nanostructures have been investigated, and their influence on the growth …

The formation of anisotropic Au nanoparticles predominantly follows one of two growth
pathways:(1) kinetic control or (2) selective surface passivation. This Perspective describes …

A new class of gold nanostructures, concave nanocubes, enclosed by 24 high-index {720}
facets, have been prepared in a monodisperse fashion by a modified seed-mediated …

We introduce the behaviour and applications of underpotential deposition (UPD) and its
combination with stripping voltammetry (UPD–SV) of metal analytes at solid-electrode …

Four different gold nanostructures: octahedra, rhombic dodecahedra, truncated ditetragonal
prisms, and concave cubes, have been synthesized using a seed-mediated growth method …

Abstract Superstar: Branched concave Au/Pd bimetallic nanocrystals (see picture) were
synthesized in high yield by seed‐mediated co‐reduction of Au and Pd metal precursors in …

The current bottleneck facing further developments in fuel cells is the lack of durable
electrocatalysts with satisfactory activity. In this study, a simple and fast one-pot wet …

The chemical compounds formed on silver, exposed at Bayuquan and Shenyang sites of
China, have been studied via scanning electron microscopy, the coulometric reduction, X …

This paper describes the formation of Cu nanofilms on a Ru/Ta-coated wafer using
electrochemical atomic layer deposition (E-ALD). The initial steps involved cleaning and …

We report results of detailed studies on the underpotential deposition of lead (Pb UPD) and
effects of specifically adsorbed halide anions on the UPD reaction at polycrystalline gold …
