Highly Oriented Gold Nanoribbons by the Reduction of Aqueous Chloroaurate Ions by Hexadecylaniline Langmuir Monolayers
Source abstract
Abstract
The one-step electrostatic complexation, reduction of aqueous chloroaurate ions and capping of the gold nanoparticles thus formed by hexadecylaniline Langmuir monolayers, is described. This process leads to the formation of highly oriented gold nanoribbons strongly bound to the Langmuir monolayer (images alongside) that may be transferred as multilayers by the Langmuir−Blodgett technique. The unusual morphology of the gold nanostructures is believed to be a consequence of highly localized reduction of the gold ions by the Langmuir monolayer.

16. The HDA Langmuir monolayer was spread on the surface of a 10-4M HAuCl4solution from chloroform in a 611 Nima Langmuir trough equipped with a Wilhelmy balance for pressure sensing. After measurement of surface pressure−monolayer area (π−A) isotherms, the HDA monolayer was compressed to a surface pressure of 25 dyn/cm and maintained at this pressure for 36 h in the dark. Thereafter, the gold nanoribbon−HDA complex monolayer was transferred by the LB method at a surface pressure of 25 dyn/cm onto TEM grids and hydrophobized Si (111) wafers and quartz substrates for further analysis. The control experiment was almost identical to that presented above with the only difference being that after quick compression of the monolayer to 25 dyn/cm surface pressure, the monolayer was exposed to vapors of hydrazine for 30 min in a chamber enclosing the trough.
