The pseudo-two-dimensional (2D) morphology of plate-like metal nanoparticles makes them
one of the most anisotropic, mechanistically understood, and tunable structures available …

Crystallization by particle attachment (CPA) is a frequently occurring mechanism of colloidal
crystallization that results in hierarchical morphologies,,–. CPA has been exploited to create …

The synthesis quality of artificial inorganic nanocrystals is most often assessed by
transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for which high-throughput advances have …

The advent of nanotechnology has broadened the scope of technological advances in both
medical and industrial applications. Nanotechnology has paved the way for cancer …

We developed an unconventional seed-mediated in situ synthetic method, whereby gold
nanostars are formed directly on the internal walls of microfluidic reactors. The dense …

The one-step seed-mediated synthesis is widely used for the preparation of ferromagnetic
metal nanoparticles (NPs) since it offers a good control of particle morphology …

The programmed crystallization of particles into low-symmetry lattices represents a major
synthetic challenge in the field of colloidal crystal engineering. Herein, we report an …

Microwave assisted shape-selective synthesis of gold nanoparticles has been achieved in a
short reaction time of 6 min. Shape of the gold nanoparticles has been found to be tuneable …

We report an efficient, seed‐mediated method for the synthesis of gold nanotriangles (NTs)
which can be used for controlled self‐assembly. The main advantage of the proposed …

Crystals are formed via nucleation and subsequent growth. In many cases, it is not easy to
decide if nucleation occurs in the volume (homogeneous nucleation) or on a foreign surface …
