Abstract
HAuCl4 was reduced by glucose as reducing agent and dispersant under UV radiation and acetone as photo sensitizer. The experimental samples were characterized by the transmission electron microscopy and UV-visible spectrophotometer, and the results show that these gold nanoparticles’ size is uniform, monodisperse distribution of spherical particles of average diameter of 5.8 nm, and gold nanowires with two-dimensional network structure were successfully prepared. The influence of glucose concentration on reaction under this condition and the mechanism of nucleation and growth of the photochemical reduction were discussed.
