摘要
En 中文
The surfactant used during a colloidal synthesis is known to control the size and shape of metallic nanoparticles. However, its influence on the nanoparticle (NP) structure is still not well understood. In this study, we show that the surfactant can significantly modify the lattice parameter of a crystalline particle. First, our electron diffraction measurements reveals that NiPt nanoparticles around 4 nm in diameter covered by a mixture of oleylamine and oleic acid (50:50) display a lattice parameter expansion around 2% when compared to the same particles without surfactant. Using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) techniques, we show that this expansion can not be explained by crystal defects, twinning, oxidation, or atoms insertion. Then, using covered NPs in the 4-22 nm size range, we show that the lattice parameter evolves linearly with the inverse of the NP size, as it is expected when a surface stress is present. Finally, the study is extended to pure nickel and pure platinum NPs, with different sizes, coated by different surfactants (oleylamine, trioctylphosphine, polyvinylpyrrolidone). The surfactants induce lattice parameter variations, whose magnitude could be related to the charge transfer between the surfactant and the particle surface.
