Several Shapes of Single Crystalline Gold Nanomaterials Prepared in the Surfactant Mixture of CTAB and Pluronics.

ABSTRACT: Twin structures in gold nanomaterials are destined because they reduce the severe strains in the misfit region of nanostructures. Defect-free single crystalline plasmonic nanomaterials gain interests these days as the integration of plasmonic materials or plasmons into electronic devices and circuits becomes more common. In this study, without subtle experimental adjustments, such as pH or halide additives, several shapes of single crystalline gold nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared in the surfactant mixture of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and Pluronic triblock copolymers. The synthesized NPs are primarily composed of {100} planes with small numbers of particles possessing a [110] zone axis. Pluronic copolymers with low number average molecular weights (M _n), such
