The invention discloses a
precious metal nanocrystalline with an adjustable
plasma resonance absorption characteristic in a visible
wave band and a preparation method of the
precious metal nanocrystalline. The
precious metal nanocrystalline is a silver-gold nanocrystalline formed by silver and gold and is prepared through a galvanic replacement reaction between silver and
chloroauric acid. The preparation method comprises the specific steps that (1),
silver nitrate is added into a
mixed solution of glycerinum containing a
reducing agent and water, and silver nanocrystalline seeds are prepared; and (2), the silver nanocrystalline seeds and a water solution of
chloroauric acid are added into a water solution containing a surface
active agent,
chloroauric acid is reduced into elemental gold through elemental silver, and a silver-gold nanocrystalline solution is obtained. The
plasma resonance absorption wave length of the precious
metal nanocrystalline is adjustable in the visible
wave band (400 nm to 700 nm). The precious
metal nanocrystalline with the adjustable
plasma resonance absorption characteristic in the visible
wave band and the preparation method of the precious
metal nanocrystalline have the beneficial effects that the preparation process is simple, the production
dispersity is good, the morphology and size are even, and the
plasma resonance absorption wave length is adjustable in the visible wave band, and can be widely applied to the fields of bioimaging,
drug release, precious metal
fluorescence enhancement, surface Raman enhancement and the like.
