A facile approach to control metal superstructure architecture with organic thin films

Abstract

Three-dimensional and morphology-tunable superstructures were produced by engineering the interactions among functional groups in organic thin films, adsorbed precursors and the formed metal nanoparticles. The type and amount of functional groups take a leading role over controlling the superstructure shape. This approach is general and promising for fabricating various metal superstructures.
