Surface modification of gold nanorods inside polymer beads
'Gold nanorods can be made stable and soluble in both polar and non-polar solvents', say US scientists
14-May-2008 -
A team led by Qun Huo at the University of Central Florida, Orlando, have developed a method to replace the ionic surfactant layer on a gold nanorod surface with a more stable thiol ligand. This is carried out by a place exchange reaction conducted inside an ionic exchange polymer bead.
