Facile synthesis of self-aligned gold nanoparticles by crack templated reduction lithography

Abstract

Fabrication of 1D gold nanoparticle (NP) arrays by crack templated reduction lithography (CTRL) is demonstrated. The gold NPs are synthesized in situ on the cracks in a polydimethoxysiloxane (PDMS) substrate without additional reducing/stabilizing agents. Upon directionally bending the substrate, various array patterns formed on the PDMS rubber.
