This review provides a broad look on the recent investigations on the synthesis,
characterization and physico-chemical properties of noble metal nanoparticles, mainly gold …

A solid–liquid–vapor interface dominated by a three‐phase contact line usually serves as an
active area for interfacial reactions and provides a vital clue to surface behavior. Recently …

Hierarchical heterostructures of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are versatile platforms
for nanoscale optoelectronics. Further coupling of these 2D materials with plasmonic …

The changes in interparticle spacing upon hydration and dehydration of drop-cast films of
hydrophilic gold nanoparticles (GNP) have been measured in situ with nanometer resolution …

Nanoparticle (NP) patterning on a solid surface via nanofluid droplet evaporation is one of

The ability to monitor the cellular uptake and distribution of engineered nanomaterials is a
basic requirement in nanomedicine and nanotoxicology. This is commonly achieved by …

The Royal Society of Chemistry Faraday Discussion (FD) conferences have a history of
nearly a hundred years, and yet there have been only two previous meetings held in the …

Implant-associated infection can be a serious problem for patients that receive orthopaedic
implants such as hip or knee replacements. Because management of infections associated …

Faraday Discussions are unique international meetings that focus on miscellaneous areas
of chemistry and have been held for over 100 years. The format of these meetings is …
