In Situ Analysis of Chiral Gold Nanorod Growth by Nanofluidic Liquid-Phase Electron Microscopy

Chiral gold nanoparticles exhibit unique chiroptical properties, but their integration into plasmonic devices requires an understanding of the formation of chiral features and controlling their growth on substrates. Here, we combine microfluidic synthesis and liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy (LP-TEM) to...

Strain-Engineered One-Dimensional van der Waals Heterostructures: BiTeI Confined in Carbon Nanotubes

Controlling the nanostructure and electronic properties of polar semiconductors could enable new applications in nanoelectronics. Here, we report the synthesis of one-dimensional BiTeI nanowires confined within single- and multiwalled carbon nanotubes using a sublimation-driven transport reaction. Aberration-corrected...

Seeded Growth of Plasmonic Core-Shell NU-1000 NanoMOFs With Intracellular Optical Readout.

Plasmonic gold bipyramids (AuBipy) encapsulated within a NU-1000 metal-organic framework (MOF) create robust core-shell nanocomposites. These porous nanoassemblies combine the near-infrared (NIR) plasmonic resonance of the metallic core with the intrinsic photoluminescence of the pyrene-based organic linkers. Comprehen...
