An intriguing difference between the two crystal structures is that apical chloride atoms cap the ends of the domes around the smaller silver nanoparticle while bromide atoms cap the domes of the ...

The structure of nanoparticles strongly influences their properties. Here, the authors use single crystal X-ray diffraction to resolve the crystal structures of Ag136 and Ag374nanoparticles ...

They found that the ukidama structure was possible, especially when the copper was the dominant element, since silver atoms have a higher tendency to diffuse on the nanoparticle surface.

Silver has a relatively high melting point -- 962 degrees Celsius, or 1763 degrees Fahrenheit -- so observation of any liquidlike behavior in its nanoparticles was "quite unexpected," Li says.

Metal nanoparticles are nanoscale structures composed of metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and copper. These particles typically range in size from 1 to 100 nanometers and exhibit unique physical ...

The most complex crystal designed and built from nanoparticles has been reported by researchers at Northwestern University and the University of Michigan. The work demonstrates that some of nature’s ...

Fabrics containing engineered nanosilver – used to kill odor causing bacteria in socks and sports clothing – leak fewer silver nanoparticles into the environment when washed than textiles with ...

The Xiamen group was building on their highly accomplished synthesis and characterisation of nanoparticles containing 44 metals, either all silver, or a core of 12 gold (or gold and silver) atoms ...
