A Seed-Based Diffusion Route to Monodisperse Intermetallic CuAu Nanocrystals

A Seed-Based Diffusion Route to Monodisperse Intermetallic CuAu Nanocrystals: "


A seedy route: Monodisperse CuAu and Cu3Au nanocrystals (NCs) were fabricated by a seed-based diffusion route using Au NCs as precursors. This method has advantages in controlling the size and monodispersity of the products. Moving a solid-state reaction into solution may help to achieve homogeneous diffusion and require less time and thermal energy.
