Research Abstract |
Metal nanostructures have attracted much attention because they exhibit unique optical properties depended on their size and shape. In particular, an electric field is significantly enhanced at sharp ends of nanostructures by the localized surface plasmon resonance(SPR). Individual nanostructures display distinct optical scattering spectra and their assembly with close-packed structures can strongly couple to external electromagnetic fields. Previously, we have successfully prepared the cubic gold nanoframe by a site-selective electrochemical deposition technique. In order to fabricate Au nanoframe array, it is necessary to assemble silver(Ag) nanocubes used as a template for nanoframes in a desired structure on an electrode. In this study, we demonstrate the bottom-up assembly of Ag nanocubes into macroscopic two-dimensional superlattices. Furthermore, a two-dimensional assembled structure, gold nanoring array, was also prepared by evaporation of solvent on a glass substrate after spread of a mixed dispersion of polystyrene beads and gold nanoparticles.
