Novel metal nanoparticles have been the focus of much scientific research due to their potential use in catalysis, electronics, surface plasmonics, and biological assays. Since the physicochemical and optoelectronic properties of these nanoparticles depend crucially on their size and shape, morphology control of metal nanoparticles is highly demanding for controlling their properties and is also important for improving their performance in numerous applications. Moreover, spatial assemblies of these nanostructured building blocks with ordered structures exhibit distinctly different properties from the corresponding individual nanoparticles or bulk solids. Herein, facile wet-chemical synthetic processes for the fabrication of versatile novel mono- and multi-metallic nanoarchitectures including nanopolyhedrons, nanourchins, nanoplates, nanoprisms, and their designed assemblies are reported. |
