Self-assemblies of silver sulfide nanocrystals: influence of length of thio-alkyl chains used as coating agent
We report on the influence of the length of thiol alkyl chains used to coat silver sulfide particles on the self-organization of nanoparticles in monolayers. The variation of the average distance between particles with the length of the thio derivatives alkyl chain is derived from direct measurements of TEM patterns.
