Platinum-functionalized octahedral silica nanocages: Synthesis and characterization

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Hole in one! Octahedral silica nanocages are prepared by a facile one-step approach, which also enables controlled functionalization with Pt in the cavities. The strategy is based on mediated deposition of silica on simultaneously generated salt quasi-templates, which are simply removed by washing with water.
