Abstract

We report the synthesis of two-dimensional (2D) dendritic Au nanowires (DNWs) with diameters of 100-200 nm in an aqueous solution of long-chain amidoamine derivative (C18AA), which acted as both capping and reducing agent, and the preparation of large 2D DNWs with diameters of 400-700 nm by seeded growth of the original DNWs. The seeded growth method in the presence of C18AA enables the fabrication of novel neuron-shaped Au nanostructures consisting of two DNWs dangling from both ends of an ultrathin Au nanowire.
