Synthesis of hybrid CdS-Au colloidal nanostructures
Article Abstract:
The growth mechanism of gold nanocrystals onto preformed cadmium sulfide nanorods to form hybrid metal nanocrystal/semiconductor nanorod colloids is explored. The analysis has shown that there is no preferred orientation between the Au nanocrystal and the CdS nanorod, indicating that growth is nonepitaxial and also the initial CdS nanorods have displayed band gap and trap state emission, both of which are quenched during Au growth.

Comment on "Role of the anion in the underpotential deposition of cadmium on a Rh(111) electrode: Probed by voltammetry and in situ scanning tunneling microscopy"
Article Abstract:
The role of anions in the underpotential deposition (UPD) of cadmium (Cd) on Rh(111) electrode was investigated. Using voltammetry and in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in H2SO4 and HCl solutions, results reveal that (bi)sulfate and chloride anions are co-deposited with Cd adatoms on Rh(111).
