Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) has been used in a wide range of applications especially in medicine and optoelectronic applications due to its localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. LSPR observation of AuNP solution shows that the plasmonic peak in the absorbance spectra lies in the range of visible light around 520 nm with deep red-wine color. The optical characteristic is controlled by the size and shape of the nanoparticles including its surface functionalization. Our research is focused on the adsorption study of 3-mercaptopropionate (3-MP) on AuNP (AuMP) surface synthesized by ligand exchange method and also by direct reduction method. The characterizations are conducted by use of UV-vis and FTIR spectroscopies in order to investigate the effect of LSPR. The absorbance spectra show that both experimental methods of AuMP give a similar profile of red-shifted in the plasmonic peaks in comparison to that of citrate-capped AuNP as a reference from 519 nm to 520 nm. The ligand exchange method of AuMP synthesis results in an unstable colloidal solution after being stored for a week at room temperature while the reduction method results in a stable colloidal solution of AuMP even though it has been stored for 2 months. The FTIR spectra show the difference in vibrational peak intensities between the 3-MP on AuNP and the 3-MPA as reference. The peak of carboxylate (COO-) asymmetric stretching is shifted to low frequency from 1708 cm-1 to 1632 cm-1 indicate the effect of LSPR while the shift to high frequencies for some vibrational peak intensities relates to the strong effect of chemical coordination between gold and capping material. The simulation of the vibration energy by use of the Density Functional Theory (DFT) method shows a similar tendency to that of the peak intensities along the infrared spectrum from experimental results.

AbstractResults of studies on the analytical capabilities of gold nanoparticles in the methods of optical molecular absorption spectroscopy are reported. Peculiar effects of the nature of nanoparticle stabilizer, its charge, morphology of nanoparticles, form in which they are present in the system (in a colloidal solution or as a part of a nanocomposite with polyurethane foam) upon the determination of organic compounds (thiols, cationic compounds, catecholamines) and inorganic anions are considered. The determination is based on aggregation of nanoparticles or change in the state of their surface and morphology as a result of silver coating, leading to significant spectral and color changes, which can be monitored both by optical molecular absorption spectroscopy and visually. The ways to increase sensitivity and to control selectivity of the analysis using gold nanoparticles and their nanocomposites are outlined.

AbstractPlasmonic nanoparticles such as those of gold or silver have been recently investigated as a possible way to improve light absorption in thin film solar cells. Here, a simple method for the preparation of spherical plasmonic gold nanoparticles in the form of a colloidal solution is presented. The nanoparticle diameter is controlled in the range from several nm to tens of nm depending on the synthesis parameters with the size dispersion down to 14 %. The synthesis is based on thermal decomposition and reduction of the chloroauric acid in the presence of a stabilizing capping agent (surfactant) that is very slowly injected into the hot solvent. The surfactant prevents uncontrolled nanoparticle aggregation during the growth process. The nanoparticle size and shape depend on the type of the stabilizing agent. Surfactants with different lengths of the hydrocarbon chains such as Z-octa-9-decenylamine (oleylamine) with AgNO3 and polyvinylpyrrolidone with AgNO3 were used for the steric stabilization. Hydrodynamic diameter of the gold nanoparticles in the colloidal solution was determined by dynamic light scattering while the size of the nanoparticle metallic core was found by small-angle X-ray scattering. The UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer measurements revealed a plasmon resonance absorption in the 500–600 nm range. Self-assembled nanoparticle arrays on a silicon substrate were prepared by drop casting followed by spontaneous evaporation of the solvent and by a modified Langmuir-Blodgett deposition. The degree of perfection of the self-assembled arrays was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering. Homogeneous close-packed hexagonal ordering of the nanoparticles stretching over large areas was evidenced. These results document the viability of the proposed nanoparticle synthesis for the preparation of high-quality plasmonic templates for thin film solar cells with enhanced power conversion efficiency, surface enhanced Raman scattering, and other applications.
