Fabrication of high quality mesoporous silica/gold film nanocomposites: calcination versus thermal hydrogen reduction

High quality mesoporous silica is an important nanomaterial in confinement of metal nanoparticles for potential applications as catalysts, sensors, and opto-electronic devices. Herein we report that high quality mesoporous silica/gold film nanocomposites with an interpore distance of 4.1 nm were suc...

description High quality mesoporous silica is an important nanomaterial in confinement of metal nanoparticles for potential applications as catalysts, sensors, and opto-electronic devices. Herein we report that high quality mesoporous silica/gold film nanocomposites with an interpore distance of 4.1 nm were successfully fabricated as transparent thin film by an amphiphilic trinuclear gold(I) pyrazolate complex that act as both a template in sol-gel synthesis and as a metal source in formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In contrast to the calcined thin films at 250 and 450C for 3 h, diffraction peak of d100 and transmission electron microscope (TEM) images showed high quality of mesoporous silica/gold film nanocomposites after thermal hydrogen reduction in the temperature range between 190 and 250C for 2 h. Nevertheless, both methods indicated formation of AuNPs as proved by the presence of diffraction peak at 2 = 38.20, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak between 500 to 580 nm, and spherical shape of TEM images.
