- Thiol-functionalized, 1.5-nm gold nanoparticles through ligand exchange reactions: Scope and mechanism of ligand exchange
-
Ligand exchange reactions of 1.5-nm triphenylphosphine-stabilized nanoparticles with ω-functionalized thiols provides a versatile approach to functionalized, 1.5-nm gold nanoparticles from a single precursor. We describe the broad scope of this method and

- Nanoparticles and Method to Control Nanoparticle Spacing
-
Disclosed herein are novel nanoparticles, particularly metal nanoparticles, such as gold nanoparticles. According to one embodiment of a method disclosed herein nanoparticles are functionalized via ligand exchange reactions. Also disclosed is a method for controlling nanoparticle spacing to produce nanoparticle arrays having defined spacing. Such nanoparticles and arrays thereof are particularly useful in nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, catalysis, sensors, and biotaggents.
