Abstract
Self-assembly of gold nanorods (NRs) with aspect ratio of ∼4.6 (12 nm in diameter and 50−60 nm in length) has been studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Under appropriate conditions such as nanoparticle concentration, solvent evaporation, narrow size distribution, ionic strength, and surfactant concentration of the parent solution, gold nanorods assemble into one-, two-, and three-dimensional structures. Some of the three-dimensional assemblies extend to superlattices of NRs. The translation and orientation symmetries of the self-assembled structures are determined. The factors affecting the formation of the ordered self-assembly are discussed.
