Plasmonic twinned silver nanoparticles with molecular precision

Plasmonic twinned silver nanoparticles with molecular precision

The structure of nanoparticles strongly influences their properties. Here, the authors use single crystal X-ray diffraction to resolve the crystal structures of Ag136 and Ag374nanoparticles, enabling the observation of local structure distortion and the lower size limit of surface plasmon resonance.
