NanoUV-VIS: an interactive visualization tool for monitoring the evolution of optical properties of nanoparticles throughout synthesis reactions

September 20, 2017
Author(s)
Bryan Calderon Jimenez, Gabriel Sarmanho, Karen E. Murphy, Antonio R. Montoro Bustos, Jose R. Vega Baudrit
Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) are being used for a broad array of high technology applications including sensing, imaging, targeted drug delivery, bio-diagnostics, catalysis, optoelectronics and film growth seeding. The enhanced optical, electrical and

Quantitative characterization of gold nanoparticles by size-exclusion and hydrodynamic chromatography, coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and quasi-elastic light scattering
