2D assembly of gold–PNIPAM core–shell nanocrystals

Abstract

2D arrays of Au–PNIPAM core–shell nanocrystals were fabricated using convective deposition and spin-coating. The particle density and ordering were studied by AFM. Annealing at 700 °C removes the polymer shell, while retaining a monolayer of well-separated gold nanoparticles. The surface plasmon modes of the colloid monolayers could be measured by spectroscopic ellipsometry.
