Flash light synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles for electrochemical applications: silver, gold, and their alloys

Hubert Girault, Victor Costa Bassetto, Carlos Manuel De Melo Pereira

The synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles (i.e., silver and gold) for electrochemical applications has been widely studied using mainly wet synthesis chemical methods or electrochemical deposition methods. In this work, we propose a single-step flash phot ...
