Surface studies of the chemical environment in gold nanorods supported by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ab initio calculations

In this manuscript, we prepared gold nanorods (Au-NRs) through “silver-assisted seeded methodology” and studied their outermost layer using XPS spectroscopy and ab initio calculations to compare the chemical states of the constituents of the metallic core. Supporting first-principles calculations em...
