Abstract
The synthesis of surfactant-free Au nanoplates is desirable for the development of biocompatible therapeutics/diagnostics. Rapid Δ-function energy deposition by irradiation of aqueous KAuCl4 solution with a 5 s burst of intense shaped laser pulses, followed by slow addition of H2O2, results in selective formation of nanoplates with no additional reagents. The primary mechanism of nanoplate formation is found to be oriented attachment of the spherical seeds, which self-recrystallize to form crystalline Au nanoplates.Entities:
