A high yield, one-pot dialysis-based process for self-assembly of near infrared absorbing gold nanoparticles

摘要

Hypothesis: A facile, dialysis-based synthesis of stable near infrared (nIR) absorbing plasmonic gold nanoparticles (lambda(max) = 650-1000 nm) will increase the yield of nIR particles and reduce the amount of gold colloid contaminant in the product mixture.
