One-pot Stöber route yields template for Ag@carbon yolk–shell nanostructures†
Abstract
A facile one-pot Stöber route is used to synthesize high-quality Ag, AgBr–silica–resorcinol formaldehyde polymer core–shell–shell nanospheres. The obtained core–shell–shell templates can be converted to Ag@carbon yolk–shell nanostructures with tunable dimensions.
