Synthesis method of asymmetric gold particles

Abstract Asymmetric particles can exhibit unique properties. However, reported synthesis methods for asymmetric particles hinder their application because these methods have a limited scale and lack the ability to afford particles of varied shapes. Herein, we report a novel synthetic method which ha...

description Abstract Asymmetric particles can exhibit unique properties.
