Facile synthesis and electrochemical properties of octahedral gold nanocrystals
High-yield octahedral gold nanocrystals of *45 nm in size have been facilely synthesized by one-pot reduction of HAuCl4 using formic acid in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) aqueous solution. The results showed that CTAB can promote the formation of single-crystalline nucleation and preferentia...
