Quantification of ligand packing density on gold nanoparticles using ICP-OES

February 18, 2012
Author(s)
Sherrie R. Elzey, De-Hao D. Tsai, Savelas A. Rabb, Lee L. Yu, Michael R. Winchester, Vincent A. Hackley
In this study, a prototypical thiolated organic ligand, 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), was conjugated on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and packing density was measured on an ensemble-averaged basis using inductively coupled plasma optical emission

Radio-Frequency Glow Discharge Spectrometry A Critical Review

April 1, 2004
Author(s)
Michael R. Winchester, R Payling
This paper presents a critical review of analytical radio frequency glow discharge spectrometry (rf-GDS). The historical foundations of rf-GDS are described, and current knowledge of the fundamental physics of analytical rf glow discharges is discussed
