Influence of hydrofluoric acid treatment on electroless deposition of Au clusters

Influence of hydrofluoric acid treatment on electroless deposition of Au clusters

The morphology of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) deposited on a (100) silicon wafer by simple immersion in a solution containing a metal salt and hydrofluoric acid (HF) is altered by HF treatment both before and after deposition. The gold clusters are characterized by the presence of flat regions and qu...
