Published: February 2002

Mixing aqueous dispersions of thiocyanate ion coated small (< 3.5 nm diameter) gold nanoparticles and EDTA covered larger (> 22 nm diameter) silver nanoparticles, results in the formation of robust gold encased silver nanoparticles; in contrast to using larger (> 11 nm diameter) gold nanoparticles which forms chained structures.
