摘要

Here we demonstrate a simple,template-free approach to the formation of spherical gold aggregates through the reduction of HAuCl_4 by NaBH_4,in the presence of cysteine (Cys) as a capping agent.The resulting aggregates are quite stable in solution.The pH of the solution and the molar ratio of Au:Cys are two key empirical factors in the formation of such highly ordered aggregates.At slightly alkaline pH (7-10) and with Au:Cys ratios ranging from 1:0.5 to 1:2,spherical Au aggregates of 30-80 nm are formed.At lower Cys ratios (Au:Cys>=1:0.5) very loosely linked aggregates are formed;however,at very high Cys ratios (Au:Cys<=l:3),highly dispersed Au particles of 2-4 nm are obtained,which are virtually indistinguishable from the original colloidal form.Aggregate size is influenced markedly by component concentration;a 3-fold increase in standard levels resulted in Au spherical aggregates of a larger size,200-500 nm.In addition,we used a combination of Cys and lysine (Lys) as a capping agent/cross-linker and found that the morphology of the Au colloid aggregates can be easily manipulated from a linear to a spherical form by adjusting the proportions of Cys and Lys in the capping agent/cross-linker mixture.The introduction of mercapto (SH)-contain-ing organic acids reduced the cross-linking ability of Cys,especially in the case of long-chain acids.Complete disruption of the spherical aggregates highlights the importance of Cys per se.An explanation of this ordered self-assembly process is proposed,in the context of the known surface chemistry of Au colloids.
