Abstract:Branched metallic nanocrystals have an array of useful properties that can be customized through parameters like shape, size, and composition. In most cases, the shape or morphology of a metallic nanostructure plays the most critical role in determining its properties and suitability for certain applications. In recent years, there has been growing interest in using anisotropic metal nanostructures for photothermal applications. This has lead to greater development in their optical properties as well as synthe… Show more
