Bimetallic Nanostructures: Gold Nanobipyramid‐Supported Silver Nanostructures with Narrow Plasmon Linewidths and Improved Chemical Stability (Adv. Funct. Mater. 3/2016)

On page 341, Z. Yang, J. F. Wang, and co-workers report a facile method for the preparation of Ag nanostructures with narrow plasmon linewidths and improved chemical stability, through Ag overgrowth on high-purity Au nanobipyramids. The Ag nanostructures exhibit superior sensing characteristics, offering great potential in the development of ultrasensitive sensors as well as in various other plasmonic applications.
