Seed-Mediated Growth of Gold Nanorods: Limits of Length to Diameter Ratio Control

The effects of the seed reaction conditions on the two-step seed-mediated growth of gold nanorods and the effect of gold and reducing agent content in the growth solution were evaluated. Results indicate that the reaction conditions used to produce the seeds have a significant impact on the aspect r...
