Published: September 2019

A new seed-mediated synthesis of AuHNPs in high yield is described using hydroquinone as a weak reductant and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as a shape-directing additive. We obtain distinct and small edge lengths of AuHNPs with long-term shape stability. Also, PVP enhances the monodispersity and enables the higher stability of functionalized nanoprisms.
