Preparation of helical gold nanowires on surfactant tubules

摘要

Electroless gold nanoplating of various forms of surfactant tubules yielded mono-,double-and multi-helical gold nanowires and their yarns in solution.One of the aims of nanotechnology is to control the size and morphology of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials,while another aim is to fabricate them in an ordered structure.Various organized surfactant assemblies and polymer films have been used for these purposes.
