Abstract

The effect of borohydride concentration on the synthesis of gold nanoparticles in solutions of chloroauric acid, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, and ascorbic acid in the absence of seeds has been studied systematically. Variations in the concentration of NaBH4 allow one to obtain particles of different sizes and shapes. A method has been developed for the one-stage synthesis of large pentagonal gold rods (the average length and thickness are 550 ± 135 and 71.2 ± 11.6 nm, respectively) with a high yield using borohydride in an ultra-low (≤5 × 10–8 mol/L) concentration. The resulting particles have been characterized using optical spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (including high-resolution technique), and electron diffraction.
