Investigate the fundamental chemical mechanisms governing initial nucleation and subsequent particle growth during colloidal gold synthesis.
Monitored gold colloid formation generated through chemical reduction in liquid solutions.
Utilized transmission electron microscopy to evaluate particle morphology, size distributions, and growth stages.
Demonstrates a distinct kinetic separation between initial nucleus formation and the subsequent particle growth stage.
Identifies reaction conditions that yield reproducible, highly uniform, and spherical colloidal gold nanoparticles.
