Abstract
Single-crystalline gold (Au) nanorods and nanowires have been successfully prepared in liquid phase by one-step, seedless and template-free microwave-polyol method. Ethylene glycol (EG) reduced HAuCl4 to form Au by microwave heating at 160 °C. Single-crystalline Au with other morphologies was also produced.Keywords
