Mini AuAg Wavy Nanorods Displaying Plasmon-Induced Photothermal and Photocatalytic Properties

Alloyed AuAg wavy nanorods (wNRs) of approximate to 24.0 nm length and 3.5 nm width are formed by the mild decomposition of the organometallic complex [Au2Ag2(C6F5)(4)(OEt2)(2)](n) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the presence of oleic acid. Ligand exchange with l-glutathione (GSH) or poly(ethylene glyco...

Sumario:Alloyed AuAg wavy nanorods (wNRs) of approximate to 24.0 nm length and 3.5 nm width are formed by the mild decomposition of the organometallic complex [Au2Ag2(C6F5)(4)(OEt2)(2)](n) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the presence of oleic acid. Ligand exchange with l-glutathione (GSH) or poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether thiol (PEG-SH) leads to water-soluble nanostructures. These AuAg wNRs display tunable size-dependent longitudinal localized surface plasmon resonance (l-LSPR) broad absorptions beyond 750 nm in the near-infrared (NIR) I and II regions. These intense plasmonic absorptions lead to interesting photothermal, catalytic, and photocatalytic properties, including the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol, the photocatalytic reduction of 4-nitrostyrene, or the photocatalytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane for H-2 release.
