Water-soluble Ag-Au bimetallic nanostructures were prepared via co-reduction and seed-mediated growth routes employing poly-(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) (PSSMA) as both a reductant and a stabilizer. Ag-Au alloy nanoparticles were obtained by the co-reduction of AgNO3 and HAuCl4, while Ag-Au core-shell nanostructures were prepared through seed-mediated growth using PSSMA-Au nanoparticle seeds in a heated AgNO3 solution. The optical properties of the Ag-Au alloy and core-shell nanostructures were studied, and the growth mechanism of the bimetallic nanoparticles was investigated. Plasmon resonance bands in the range 422 to 517 nm were observed for Ag-Au alloy nanoparticles, while two plasmon resonances were found in the Ag-Au core-shell nanostructures. Furthermore, discrete dipole approximation theoretical simulation was used to assess the optical property differences between the Ag-Au alloy and core-shell nanostructures. Composition and morphology studies confirmed that the synthesized materials were Ag-Au bimetallic nanostructures.
通过共还原法和种子介导生长法制备了水溶性Ag-Au双金属纳米结构,采用聚(4-苯乙烯磺酸-co-马来酸)(PSSMA)作为还原剂和稳定剂。通过AgNO₃和HAuCl₄的共还原获得Ag-Au合金纳米颗粒,而Ag-Au核壳纳米结构则是在加热的AgNO₃溶液中使用PSSMA-Au纳米颗粒种子通过种子介导生长法制备的。研究了Ag-Au合金和核壳纳米结构的光学性质,并研究了双金属纳米颗粒的生长机制。Ag-Au合金纳米颗粒在422至517nm范围内观察到等离子体共振带,而在Ag-Au核壳纳米结构中发现了两个等离子体共振。此外,采用离散偶极近似理论模拟来评估Ag-Au合金和核壳纳米结构之间的光学性质差异。组成和形态研究证实,合成材料为Ag-Au双金属纳米结构。
