Challenges for Physical Characterization of Silver Nanoparticles Under Pristine and Environmentally Relevant Conditions

March 17, 2011
Author(s)
Robert I. MacCuspie, Kim Rogers, Manomita Patra, Zhiyong Suo, Andrew J. Allen, Matthew N. Martin, Vincent A. Hackley
The conditions used to disperse silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) strongly impact their resulting size measurements and agglomeration state, based on the underlying metrology and physical chemistry, respectively. A series of AgNP materials with reported

Size Measurement of Nanoparticles using Atomic Force Microscopy

January 1, 2011
Author(s)
Jaroslaw Grobelny, Frank W. DelRio, Pradeep Namboodiri, Doo-In Kim, Vincent A. Hackley, Robert F. Cook
This chapter outlines procedures for sample preparation and the determination of nanoparticle size using atomic force microscopy (AFM). To start, procedures for dispersing gold nanoparticles on various surfaces such that they are suitable for imaging and

Nano- and Atom-scale Length Metrology

October 1, 2010
Author(s)
Theodore V. Vorburger, Ronald G. Dixson, Ndubuisi G. Orji, Joseph Fu, Richard A. Allen, Michael W. Cresswell, Vincent A. Hackley
Measurements of length at the nano-scale have increasing importance in manufacturing, especially in the electronics and biomedical industries. The properties of linewidth and step height are critical to the function and specification of semiconductor

Characterization of gold nanoparticles modified with single-stranded DNA using analytical ultracentrifugation and dynamic light scattering

August 3, 2010

James Falabella, Tae Joon Cho, Dean C. Ripple, Vincent A. Hackley, Michael J. Tarlov
We report the characterization of gold nanoparticles modified with thiol-terminated single stranded DNA using analytical ultracentrifugation and dynamic light scattering. Sedimentation coefficients of nominally 10 and 20 nm diameter gold nanoparticles
