Abstract

Gold colloidal suspensions are produced from both inverse micelle solutions and microemulsions through both chemical and photolytic reduction of the appropriate salt. A variety of surfactant/solvent combinations yield varying results with respect to metalloid growth kinetics and stability as revealed through dynamic light scattering, small-angle x-ray and neutron scattering, and transmission electron microscopy.
