Abstract
The effect of illumination on the agglomeration of surface-modified gold nanoparticles both in solution and on gold (111) surfaces is investigated here. It is shown that illumination induces additional interparticle interactions, which can be controlled by changing the illumination wavelength. The Figure shows linear arrays of gold nanoparticles formed on a gold surface upon illumination at 830 nm.
