Shape-Controlled Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles in Deep Eutectic Solvents for Studies of Structure-Functionality Relationships in Electrocatalysis

Star performance: The shape and surface structure of star‐shaped gold nanoparticles (NPs) bounded by (331) and vicinal high‐index facets, now synthesized for the first time, can be tuned by varying the water content in the deep eutetic solvent. The results confirm that star‐shaped Au NPs exhibit sup...

Zusammenfassung:Star performance: The shape and surface structure of star‐shaped gold nanoparticles (NPs) bounded by (331) and vicinal high‐index facets, now synthesized for the first time, can be tuned by varying the water content in the deep eutetic solvent. The results confirm that star‐shaped Au NPs exhibit superior activity for electrocatalytic reduction of H2O2. The ability to tune the shape offers insight into structure–functionality relationships.
