• has been used to induce the growth of semiconductor nanowires [97]. In this study by Aramesh, gold catalyst nanoparticles were distributed onto GaAs and InAs substrates and upon irradiating selected regions with helium ions, semiconductor nanowires grew from the gold nucleation sites. By increasing

• presence of an excess of base (Cs2CO3, 3 eq.) at 80 °C and under atmospheric conditions (Scheme 1). Before observing the influence of calcination of thiolates on the activity of the gold catalysts, a blank and the support alone were run to confirm the catalytic activity of the gold catalyst. Since there

Thus the Hcp1_cys3 unit is shown to be very versatile in the formation of new biohybrid materials with enhanced magnetic, catalytic and optical properties.

On the other hand, Haruta considered the NPG catalyst as an inversely supported gold catalyst, where the junction perimeters between gold and Ag2O accounts for the high catalytic activity. A similar bifunctional effect was proposed also for CO

• demonstrate how the different nature of the gold catalyst as well as the deposition temperature (375 versus 650 °C) changes the outcome of the growth. In addition, we will demonstrate that the “liquid bright gold” can be patterned by irradiation with UV light, which in turn results in localized deposition of
