Implications of citrate concentration during the seeded growth synthesis of gold nanoparticles

Abstract

Increasing the citrate concentration during the seeded growth synthesis of gold nanoparticles yields materials with decreased aspect ratios and increased defect densities. The stability of these nanoparticles is attributed to variations in their overall Gibb's free energy.
