Depletion force optimization for high-purity gold nanotriangles prepared using different growth methods.

ABSTRACT: A homogeneous structural distribution in metal nanoparticle is commonly required for their application, and despite high-yield growth techniques, unavoidable structural heterogeneity remains a concern in metal nanoparticle synthesis. Gold nanotriangles (AuNTs) were synthesized using seed-mediated and seedless growth methods. Recent advancements in high-yield synthesis processes have enabled easy handling of AuNTs, which exhibit unique localized surface plasmon resonance characteristics due to their anisotropic triangular form. The flocculation and subsequent precipitation technique was used to purify AuNTs of different sizes synthesized using seed-mediated and seedless growth methods. The optimal conditions for obtaining high-purity AuNTs were explored by introducing a high concentration o
