Multi-metal nanoparticles: Digestive ripening is the ticket - Small Times

Multi-metal nanoparticles: Digestive ripening is the ticket - Small Times December 20, 2010) -- A new study from researchers at North Carolina State University sheds light on how a technique that is commonly used for making single-metal nanoparticles can be extended to create nanoparticles consisting of two metals and that have tunable properties. The study also provides insight into the optical properties of some of these nanoparticles.
