Elucidating the Role of Surface Ligands on the Oxidative Etching of Au Bipyramids During Photothermia Using Liquid Cell Transmission Electron Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Gold bipyramids can act as efficient plasmonic nanoheaters, but they often reshape during laser heating. This study shows that oxygen nanobubbles drive oxidative etching and that surface ligands control stability. CTAB‐ and citrate‐coated particles blunt and lose optical performance, whereas polystyrene sulfonate preserves shape and heating by ...

Mitigating Wheat Lodging Through Varietal Selection and Nitrogen Management

open access: yesFood and Energy Security
For greater crop yields, farmers frequently use high‐yielding varieties and apply more nitrogen, both enhancing the risk of crop lodging. To better understand the tradeoff between high yield and lodging, a diverse set of 15 wheat varieties was tested ...
