The use of imaging XPS to assess ligand binding to nanoparticles

A micro‐beam scanning X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been utilized to obtain information about the attachment of ligand to nanoparticles in solution by measuring the ligand components relative to nanoparticle components. CdSe/ZnS core/shell nanoparticles capped with three different kinds of ligand molecules are drop‐casted on a substrate and led to dry into self‐agglomerated micropatterns. Those specimens are mapped out by element‐sensitive XPS imaging. The spatial correlation between surface ligand molecules and core nanoparticle atoms is statistically analysed using Pearson correlation function, which provides with a useful assessment of the ligand binding to nanoparticle surfaces.

Capped Bimetallic and Trimetallic Nanoparticles for Catalysis and Information Technology

Summary: Polymer-capped metal nanoparticles can be recognized as a kind of macromolecule-metal nanoparticle complexes. Here the preparations of the capped bimetallic and trimetallic nanoparticles, in which each particle contains two and three elements of metal, respectively, are presented. They may have a random alloy, a core/shell, or other kinds of structure depending on the preparation method and the combination of elements. The core/shell structure is advantageous to electronically control the activity of metal catalysts. The triple core/shell structured trimetallic nanoparticles were found to have higher catalytic activity than the corresponding monometallic and bimetallic nanoparticles in three cases. Capped metal nanoparticles were also used as a dopant to liquid crystals. Liquid crystal displays, fabricated by metal nanoparticle-doped liquid crystals, showed faster response than those without dopants. Bimetalization could increase the long-term stability in the doped liquid crystal displays. Thus, metal nanoparticles can improve the electronic display system, which occupies an important position in information technology. In addition, SmCo₅ nanomagnets were successfully prepared by a chemical method, possibly providing a new building block for information technology. The prepared SmCo₅ nanoparticles have a coercivity of 1500 Oe at room temperature. The bimetallic nanoparticles may open a new field in super-high-density magnetic memories.

Spectroscopic characterizations of molecularly linked gold nanoparticle assemblies upon thermal treatment

The understanding of surface properties of core-shell type nanoparticles is important for exploiting the unique nanostructured catalytic properties. We report herein findings of a spectroscopic investigation of the thermal treatment of such nanoparticle assemblies. We have studied assemblies of gold nanocrystals of approximately 2 nm core sizes that are capped by alkanethiolate shells and are assembled by covalent or hydrogen-bonding linkages on a substrate as a model system. The structural evolution of the nanoparticle assemblies treated at different temperatures was probed by several spectroscopic techniques, including UV-visible, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that the capping/linking shell molecules can be effectively removed to produce controllable surface and optical properties. The data further revealed that the thermally induced evolution of the surface plasmon resonance property of gold nanoparticles is dependent on the chemical nature of the linker molecule. The spectral evolution is discussed in terms of changes in particle size, interparticle distance, and dielectric medium properties, which has important implications for controlled preparation and thermal processing of core-shell nanostructured metal catalysts.

Facile synthesis of highly luminescent Mn-doped ZnS nanocrystals

Manganese-doped zinc sulfide quantum dots (Mn:ZnS d-dots) with high optical quality, pure dopant emission of 55-65% photoluminescence quantum yield, were synthesized in octadecene media with generic starting materials, namely, zinc (manganese) carboxylic acid salts, S powder, and dodecanethiol (DDT) based on a "nucleation doping" strategy. The optical properties and structure of the obtained Mn:ZnS d-dots have been characterized by UV-vis, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The resulting nearly monodisperse d-dots were found to be of spherical shape with a zinc-blende crystal structure. The influences of various experimental variables, including the reaction temperature for the MnS core nanocluster and ZnS host material, the amount of octadecene (ODE)-S, DDT, as well as Zn/Mn ratio have been systematically investigated. The use of DDT as capping ligand ensured the reproducible access to a stable small-sized MnS core. This paves the way for reproducibly obtaining highly luminescent d-dots. Programmed overcoating temperature for growth of ZnS shell was employed to realize balanced diffusion of the Mn ions in the d-dots.     

Free Energy of Bare and Capped Gold Nanoparticles Permeating through a Lipid Bilayer

Herein, we study the permeation free energy of bare and octane‐thiol‐capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) translocating through a lipid membrane. To investigate this, we have pulled the bare and capped AuNPs from bulk water to the membrane interior and estimated the free energy cost. The adsorption of the bare AuNP on the bilayer surface is energetically favorable but further loading inside it requires energy. However, the estimated free‐energy barrier for loading the capped AuNP into the lipid membrane is much higher compared to bare AuNP. We also demonstrate the details of the permeation process of bare and capped AuNPs. Bare AuNP induces the curvature in the lipid membrane whereas capped AuNP creates an opening in the interacting monolayer and get inserted into the membrane. The insertion of capped AuNP induces a partial unzipping of the lipid bilayer, which results in the ordering of the local lipids interacting with the nanoparticle. However, bare AuNP disrupts the lipid membrane by pushing the lipid molecules inside the membrane. We also analyze pore formation due to the insertion of capped AuNP into the membrane, which results in water molecules penetrating the hydrophobic region.     

Structure-Selective Cation Exchange in the Synthesis of Zincblende MnS and CoS Nanocrystals

The ability to selectively form one crystal structure among several options in a polymorphic system is an important goal in solid-state synthesis. Nanocrystal cation exchange, which proceeds rapidly under mild conditions, can retain key structural features and yield otherwise inaccessible phases, but the extent to which crystal structure can be retained and therefore selectively targeted during such reactions has been limited. Here, we show that nanocrystals of digenite Cu_2−xS transform to zincblende MnS and CoS upon cation exchange. Zincblende MnS and CoS, which are metastable in bulk, retain both the tetrahedral cation coordination and cubic close packed anion sublattice of digenite Cu_2−xS. Comparison with wurtzite MnS and CoS, which have been accessed previously through analogous cation exchange of roxbyite Cu_2−xS, demonstrates the selective formation of the related zincblende vs. wurtzite polymorphs by cation exchange of structurally distinct templates.     

Inversion of Optical Activity in the Synthesis of Mercury Sulfide Nanoparticles: Role of Ligand Coordination

Optical activity in inorganic colloidal materials was controlled through interactions of chiral molecules with the nanoparticle (NP) surface. An inversion of optical activity in the synthesis of mercury sulfide (HgS) NPs was demonstrated with an intrinsically chiral crystalline system in the presence of an identical chiral capping ligand. A continuous decrease in the positive first Cotton effect and an eventual reversal of CD profile were observed upon heating the aqueous solution of HgS NPs capped with N‐acetyl‐l ‐cysteine (Ac‐l ‐Cys) at 80 °C. Ac‐l ‐Cys afforded two bidentate coordination configurations with an almost mirror image of each other using the thiolate and either of carboxylate or acetyl–carbonyl groups on the HgS core. Experiment and calculation suggest that a shift in the distribution of the NP formation with energy in response to the combinations of ligand coordination structure and chiral crystalline surface is responsible for the inversion of optical activity.
