Silica Gels Doped with Gold Nanoparticles: Preparation, Structure and Optical Properties

Silica Gels Doped with Gold Nanoparticles: Preparation, Structure and Optical Properties

A novel, one-pot sol–gel preparation scheme leading to reproducible incorporation of 20–40 nm sized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in SiO<sub>2</sub> gels is developed based on in situ reduction during gelation using chloroauric acid and ascorbic acid. Variation in the preparation conditions...
