The Surface Oxidation States of Copper Nanoparticles Generated by Ligand-Mediated Laser Ablation

Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) generated by Laser Ablation Synthesis in Solution (LASiS) were encapsulated and stabilised by a variety of ligands in solution. The encapsulation ligands where chosen to utilise the N-donor binding ability to the CuNPs. This facilitated the oxidative control of the CuNPs...
