RESUMO

We report here an extensive high pressure small-angle X-ray scattering study on 3D supercrystals self-assembled from colloidal spherical gold crystalline nanoparticule (NPs). We used a large variety of NPs with different gold core diameter, from 2 to 10 nm, grafted with different ligands: alkane-thiols or oleylamine. The self assembly of these various NPs leads to supercrystals of different structures: face centered cubic (FCC), body centered cubic (BCC), as well as the C14 Frank and Kasper phase. Using a Diamond Anvil Cell to apply pressure on these wide range of samples, we provide a unique overview on the mechanical properties of gold NPs supercrystals. In particular, bulk modulii have been determined from low pressure regime and the different behavior between FCC and BCC structures has been interpreted as due to an easier restructuring of the ligand conformation in the FCC structure compared to the BCC structure. At higher pressure, a fingerprint of irreversible structural transition has been observed. We have ascribed this irreversibility to the sintering of nanoparticles and confirmed this interpretation by transmission electron microscopy.

RESUMO

We report on High Pressure Small Angle X-ray Scattering (HP-SAXS) measurements on 3D face-centered cubic (FCC) supracrystals (SCs) built from spherical gold nanoparticles (NPs). Dodecane-thiol ligands are grafted on the surface and ensure the stability of the gold NPs by forming a protective soft layer. Under a hydrostatic pressure of up to 12 GPa, the SC showed a high structural stability. The bulk elastic modulus of the SC was derived from the HP-SAXS measurements. The compression of the SC undergoes two stages: the first one related to the collapse of the voids between the NPs followed by the second one related to the compression of the soft matrix which gives a major contribution to the mechanical behavior. By comparing the bulk modulus of the SC to that of dodecane, the soft matrix appears to be less compressible than the crystalline dodecane. This effect is attributed to a less optimized chain packing under pressure compared to the free chains, as the chains are constrained by both grafting and confinement within the soft matrix. We conclude that these constraints on chain packing within the soft matrix enhance the stability of SCs under pressure.

RESUMO

The introduction of nanoparticles (MNPs) at the surface of cationic poly-porphyrin films, obtained by electrostatic interaction between the bis-porphyrin copolymer and the Preyssler type polyoxometalate P5W30@MNPs, enhances the photocurrent (up to 2.5-3 times greater as a function of the used nanoparticle).
