Why is it important?

Gold nanocrystals have been widely studied. They are one of the most widely used precious metals. We have achieved the transition from micron octahedral to nanometer TDP, providing a controlled preparation method and understanding of crystal growth behavior.

Perspectives

It is hoped that through the study of the growth mechanism of gold nanocrystals, more in-depth understanding of the growth behavior of crystals can be obtained, so as to achieve the precise preparation of all required crystals.
