Electron-Donating Benzenethiols Direct Rapid Formation of Plasmonic Gold Nanoflowers
Gold nanostructures with branched morphologies exhibit strong plasmonic properties, enabling advanced biosensing and biochemical applications. Here, we report a rapid and scalable synthesis of gold nanoflowers (AuNFs) using modified benzenethiols as both reducing and capping agents. Benzenethiols bearing electron-donat...
