Abstract
A new class of core-shell metallic nanostructures with tunable near-surface composition and surface morphology with excellent catalytic activity is reported. Very thin shells of metal nanoassemblies such as monolayer (Ag and Au), bilayer of Ag or Au, and AgAu alloy layer with controlled size and morphology were deposited onto a gold nanocube (AuNC) core. UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analyses along with selected-area electron diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer, and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the prepared core-shell nanocubes. High-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping images were recorded for the bilayer shell and alloy layer shell in the core-shell nanostructures. Reduction of 4-nitroaniline in the presence of sodium borohydride was chosen to validate the catalytic activity of the prepared core-shell metal nanocubes. Interestingly, the AgAu alloy shell layer over the AuNC (AuNC1@Ag0.25Au0.25) showed excellent catalytic activity compared with the pristine AuNC and monolayer and bilayer core-shell nanostructures.

Abstract
Rapid quantification of permanganate (MnO4-) in aqueous solution with a convenient and sensitive single-particle-detection (SPD) method is demonstrated by dark-field optical microscopy. The design is based on the selective etching of the Ag shell of a glucose-protected GNPs@Ag nanoparticle by MnO4-. In the presence of MnO4-, a noticeable red-shift of localized surface-plasmon resonance (LSPR, from blue to green) together with a tremendous decrease in the extinction coefficient from individual GNPs@Ag nanoparticles is observed. MnO4- can then be quantified by calculating the ratio between the number of green and blue particles on the cover glass surface after the etching process. A linear dynamic range of 0-6 μM and a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 46 nM were readily achieved, which are much lower than those of spectroscopic measurements in bulk solution. In tap water, a comparable LOD (50 nM) and satisfactory recovery efficiency are demonstrated. As a consequence of these merits, the method demonstrated herein will find promising applications for the ultrasensitive detection of MnO4- under complex milieu in the future.

Abstract
Bimetallic gold-silver nanoparticles as unique catalysts were prepared using seed colloidal techniques. The catalytic capabilities of the nanoparticles were ascertained in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol in the presence of sodium borohydride. Our results clearly showed that the rate of 4-NP reduction to 4-AP increased with a corresponding decrease in the diameter of the bimetallic NPs. The Au-Ag nanoparticles prepared with 5.0 mL Au seed volume indicated higher reduction activity, which was approximately 1.2 times higher than that of 2.0 mL Au seed volume in the reductive conversion of 4-NP to 4-AP. However, the monometallic NPs showed relatively less catalytic activity in the reductive conversion of 4-NP to 4-AP compared to bimetallic Au-Ag nanoparticles. Our studies also reinforced the improved catalytic properties of the bimetallic Au-Ag nanoparticles structure with a direct impact of the size or diameter and relative composition of the bimetallic catalytic nanoparticles.

Abstract
The structure and atomic ordering of Au-Ag nanoparticles grown in the gas phase are determined by a combination of HAADF-STEM, XPS and Refl-XAFS techniques as a function of composition. It is shown consistently from all the techniques that an inversion of chemical ordering takes place by going from Au-rich to Ag-rich compositions, with the minority element always occupying the nanoparticle core, and the majority element enriching the shell. With the aid of DFT calculations, this composition-tunable chemical arrangement is rationalized in terms of a four-step growth process in which the very first stage of cluster nucleation plays a crucial role. The four-step growth mechanism is based on mechanisms of a general character, likely to be applicable to a variety of binary systems besides Au-Ag.

Abstract
Hybridization with gold has attracted a lot of attention in many application areas such as energy, nanomedicine, and catalysts. Here, we demonstrate electrochemical hybridization of two different metals by using bare and 1,4-phenylene diisocyanide (PDI) functionalized gold nanoislands (GNIs) supported on a Si substrate. As pristine GNIs are not tightly locked on the Si surface, bimetallic Au@M (M = Ag, Pd, Fe, and Cu) core-shell type nanostructures are produced by an electric-field-induced clustering of GNIs and metal deposition. On the other hand, upon functionalization of GNIs by PDI, 3D island growth on the functionalized GNI template is observed as PDI acts as a protector against the electric-field-induced clustering. Depth-profiling X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals no discernible difference in the interfacial electronic structures of hybrid metals prepared by using pristine and PDI-functionalized GNI templates. This work demonstrates a new approach to produce a secured template and to manipulate growth of hybrid nanoparticles on this template supported on a Si substrate by using electrodeposition and organic functionalization.

Abstract
Platinum/silver (Pt@Ag) and palladium/silver (Pd@Ag) core/shell NPs have been synthesized in two steps reaction using the citrate method. The progress of nanoparticle formation was followed by the UV/Vis spectroscopy. Transmission electron microscopy revealed spherical shaped core/shell nanoparticles with average particle diameter 32.17nm for Pt@Ag and 8.8nm for Pd@Ag. The core/shell NPs were further characterized by FT-IR and XRD. Reductive degradation of the Congo red dye was chosen to demonstrate the excellent catalytic activity of these core/shell nanostructures. The nanocatalysts act as electron mediators for the transfer of electrons from the reducing agent (NaBH4) to the dye molecules. Effect of reaction parameters such as nanocatalyst dose, dye and NaBH4 concentrations on the dye degradation was investigated. A comparison between the catalytic activities of both nanocatalysts was made to realize which of them the best in catalytic performance. Pd@Ag was the higher in catalytic activity over Pt@Ag. Such greater activity is originated from the smaller particle size and larger surface area. Pd@Ag nanocatalyst was catalytically stable through four subsequent reaction runs under the utilized reaction conditions. These findings can thus be considered as possible economical alternative for environmental safety against water pollution by dyes.

Abstract
We demonstrate a one-step precise direct metal writing of well-defined and densely packed gold nanoparticle (AuNP) patterns with tunable physical and optical properties. We achieve this by using two-photon lithography on a Au precursor comprising poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and ethylene glycol (EG), where EG promotes higher reduction rates of Au(III) salt via polyol reduction. Hence, clusters of monodisperse AuNP are generated along raster scanning of the laser, forming high-particle-density, well-defined structures. By varying the PVP concentration, we tune the AuNP size from 27.3 to 65.0 nm and the density from 172 to 965 particles/μm2, corresponding to a surface roughness of 12.9 to 67.1 nm, which is important for surface-based applications such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). We find that the microstructures exhibit an SERS enhancement factor of >105 and demonstrate remote writing of well-defined Au microstructures within a microfluidic channel for the SERS detection of gaseous molecules. We showcase in situ SERS monitoring of gaseous 4-methylbenzenethiol and real-time detection of multiple small gaseous species with no specific affinity to Au. This one-step, laser-induced fabrication of AuNP microstructures ignites a plethora of possibilities to position desired patterns directly onto or within most surfaces for the future creation of multifunctional lab-on-a-chip devices.

Abstract
Highly open metallic nanocages represent a novel class of nanostructures for advanced catalytic applications in direct liquid fuels cells due to their specific capability of providing easy access to reactants in both internal and external active sites and also desirable electronic structures for the adsorption of molecules, which render superior catalytic performances. However, to date, the rational design of trimetallic nanocages with tunable compositions remains a challenge. Herein, we demonstrate a facile method combining seed mediated and galvanic replacement for the preparation of unique trimetallic Pd-Au-Ag nanocages catalysts with tunable compositions. A series of controlled experiments reveal that the reaction time plays a crucial role in affecting the morphology of the final product. Importantly, the newly-generated Pd-Au-Ag nanocages are high-performance electrocatalysts for the oxidation of both ethylene glycol and glycerol with mass activities of 7578.2 and 5676.1 mA mg-1, respectively, which are far superior to that of commercial Pd/C. We firmly believe that the strategy and enhanced electrocatalysts developed in this study can be well applied to boost the commercial development of fuel cell technologies.

Abstract
In these recent years, magnetite (Fe3O4) has witnessed a growing interest in the scientific community as a potential material in various fields of application namely in catalysis, biosensing, hyperthermia treatments, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents and drug delivery. Their unique properties such as metal-insulator phase transitions, superconductivity, low Curie temperature, and magnetoresistance make magnetite special and need further investigation. On the other hand, nanoparticles especially gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) exhibit striking features that are not observed in the bulk counterparts. For instance, the mentioned ferromagnetism in Au NPs coated with protective agents such as dodecane thiol, in addition to their aptitude to be used in near-infrared (NIR) light sensitivity and their high adsorptive ability in tumor cell, make them useful in nanomedicine application. Besides, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are known as an antimicrobial agent. Put together, the [Formula: see text] nanocomposites with tunable size can therefore display important demanding properties for diverse applications. In this review, we try to examine the new trend of magnetite-based nanomaterial synthesis and their application in catalysis and nanomedicine.

Abstract
Hierarchical α-Ni(OH)2 assembled of ultrathin nanosheets with the intercalation of diatomic alcohol molecules were synthesized via a facile one-step solvothermal process. The assembly structure avoided the agglomeration of ultrathin nanosheets while retaining their atomic-scale thickness and high surface area. The intercalation of the diatomic alcohol molecules into the transition-metal layers provided larger interlayer spacing and more exposed active sites, which guaranteed the high activity of the α-Ni(OH)2. The as-obtained hierarchical α-Ni(OH)2 exhibited excellent catalytic performance in the reduction of p-nitrophenol, with a maximum reaction rate constant (k) of 6.23 × 10-3 s-1 and a super high activity factor K (K = k/m) of 216.69 s-1 g-1. The layer spacing played the most important role in the reaction, and the catalytic efficiency increased greatly with the increase of the layer spacing of the α-Ni(OH)2. This design concept and synthetic method can also be extended to the production of a wide variety of hierarchical catalysts for other reactions.

Abstract
Ruthenium (Ru) featured with an unusual catalytic behavior is of great significance in several heterogeneous and electro-catalytic reactions. The preparation of tractable Ru nanocatalysts and the building of highly active catalytic system at ambient temperature remains a grand challenge. Herein, a facile strategy is developed for the controllable preparation of Ru nanoparticles (NPs) with the sizes ranging from 2.6 to 51.5nm. Ru NPs show superior size-dependent catalytic performance with the best kinetic rate constant as high as -1.52min-1, which could far surpass the other traditional noble metals. Ru NPs exert exceedingly efficient low-temperature catalytic activity and good recyclability in the catalytic reduction of nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) and azo dyes. The developed catalytic system provides a distinguishing insight for the artificial preparation of Ru NPs with desired sizes, and allows for the development of rational design rules for exploring catalysts with superior catalytic performances, potentially broadening the applications of metallic NP-enabled catalytic analysis.

Abstract
Highly porous tri-metallic AgxAuyPdz networks with a sub-monolayer bimetallic Au-Pd nanoparticle coating were synthesized via a designed galvanic replacement reaction of Ag nanosponges suspended in mixed solutions of HAuCl4 and K2PdCl4. The resulting networks’ ligaments have a rough surface with bimetallic nanoparticles and nanopores due to removal of Ag. The surface morphology and composition are adjustable by the temperature and mixed solutions’ concentration. Very low combined Au and Pd atomic percentage (1−x) where x is atomic percentage of Ag leads to sub-monolayer nanoparticle coverings allowing a large number of active boundaries, nanopores, and metal-metal interfaces to be accessible. Optimization of the Au/Pd atomic ratio y/z obtains large surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection sensitivity (at y/z = 5.06) and a higher catalytic activity (at y/z = 3.55) toward reduction reactions as benchmarked with 4-nitrophenol than for most bimetallic catalysts. Subsequent optimization of x (at fixed y/z) further increases the catalytic activity to obtain a superior tri-metallic catalyst, which is mainly attributed to the synergy of several aspects including the large porosity, increased surface roughness, accessible interfaces, and hydrogen absorption capacity of nanosized Pd. This work provides a new concept for scalable synthesis and performance optimization of tri-metallic nanostructures.

Abstract
Au-Pd nanocrystals are an intriguing system to study the integrated functions of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and heterogeneous catalysis. Gold is both durable and can harness incident light energy to enhance the catalytic activity of another metal, such as Pd, via the SPR effect in bimetallic nanocrystals. Despite the superior catalytic performance of icosahedral (IH) nanocrystals compared to alternate morphologies, the controlled synthesis of alloy and core-shell IH is still greatly challenged by the disparate reduction rates of metal precursors and lack of continuous epigrowth on multiply twinned boundaries of such surfaces. Herein, we demonstrate a one-step strategy for the controlled growth of monodisperse Au-Pd alloy and core-shell IH with terraced shells by turning an ionic switch between [Br(-)]/[Cl(-)] in the coreduction process. The core-shell IH nanocrystals contain AuPd alloy cores and ultrathin Pd shells (<2 nm). They not only display more than double the activity of the commercial Pd catalysts in ethanol electrooxidation attributed to monatomic step terraces but also show SPR-enhanced conversion of 4-nitrophenol. This strategy holds promise toward the development of alternate bimetallic IH nanocrystals for electrochemical and plasmon-enhanced catalysis.

Abstract
In this report, carbon-based AuPd bimetallic nanocomposite (AuPd/C NC) was synthesized using carbon dots (C-dots) as the reducing agent and stabilizer by a simple green sequential reduction strategy, without adding other agents. The as synthesized AuPd/C NC showed good catalytic activity and peroxidase-like property. The structure and morphology of these nanoparticles were clearly characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The AuPd/C NC catalyst exhibits noticeably higher catalytic activity than Pd and Au nanoparticles in catalysis reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). Moreover, based on the high peroxidase-like property of AuPd/C NC, a new colorimetric detection method for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has been designed using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) as the substrate, which provides a simple and sensitive means to detect H2O2 in wide linear range of 5 μM-500 μM and 500 μM-4 mM with low detection limit of 1.6 μM (S/N = 3). Therefore, the facile synthesis strategy for bimetallic nanoparticles by the mild reductant of carbon dot will provide some new thoughts for preparing of carbon-based metal nanomaterials and expand their application in catalysis and analytical chemistry areas.

Abstract
With the evolution of nanoscience and nanotechnology, studies have been focused on manipulating nanoparticle properties through the control of their size, composition, and morphology. As nanomaterial research has progressed, the foremost focus has gradually shifted from synthesis, morphology control, and characterization of properties to the investigation of function and the utility of integrating these materials and chemical sciences with the physical, biological, and medical fields, which therefore necessitates the development of novel materials that are capable of performing multiple tasks and functions. The construction of multifunctional nanomaterials that integrate two or more functions into a single geometry has been achieved through the surface-coating technique, which created a new class of substances designated as core-shell nanoparticles. Core-shell materials have growing and expanding applications due to the multifunctionality that is achieved through the formation of multiple shells as well as the manipulation of core/shell materials. Moreover, core removal from core-shell-based structures offers excellent opportunities to construct multifunctional hollow core architectures that possess huge storage capacities, low densities, and tunable optical properties. Furthermore, the fabrication of nanomaterials that have the combined properties of a core-shell structure with that of a hollow one has resulted in the creation of a new and important class of substances, known as the rattle core-shell nanoparticles, or nanorattles. The design strategies of these new multifunctional nanostructures (core-shell, hollow core, and nanorattle) are discussed in the first part of this review. In the second part, different synthesis and fabrication approaches for multifunctional core-shell, hollow core-shell and rattle core-shell architectures are highlighted. Finally, in the last part of the article, the versatile and diverse applications of these nanoarchitectures in catalysis, energy storage, sensing, and biomedicine are presented.

Abstract
Catalyst-containing nanoreactors have attracted considerable attention for specific applications. Here, we initially report preparation of PtNi@SiO2 hollow microspheres based on confined catalysis. The previous encapsulation of dispersed Pt nanoparticles (NPs) in hollow silica microspheres ensures the formation of Pt@Ni coreshell NPs inside the silica porous shell. Thus, the Pt NPs not only catalyze the reduction of Ni ions but also direct Ni deposition on the Pt cores to obtain Pt@Ni core-shell catalyst. It is worthy to point out that this synthetic approach helps to form a patchlike or thick Ni coating on Pt cores by controlling the penetration time of Ni ions from the bulk solution into the SiO2 microspheres (0.5, 1, 2, or 4 h). Notably, the Pt@Ni core-shell NPs with a patch-like Ni layer on Pt cores (0.5 and 1 h) show a higher H2 generation rate of 1221-1475 H2 mL min(-1) g(-1)cat than the Pt@Ni NPs with a thick Ni layer (2 and 4 h, 920-1183 H2 mL min(-1) g(-1)cat), and much higher than that of pure Pt NPs (224 H2 mL min(-1) g(-1)cat). In addition, the catalyst possesses good stability and recyclability for H2 generation. The Pt@Ni core-shell NPs confined inside silica nanocapsules, with well-defined compositions and morphologies, high H2 generation rate, and recyclability, should be an ideal catalyst for specific applications in liquid phase reaction.

Abstract
Nitrophenol reduction to aminophenol with a reducing agent is conveniently carried out in aqueous medium mainly with a metal or metal oxide catalyst. This reduction is presently considered as a benchmark reaction to test a catalyst nanoparticle. Thousands of original reports have enriched this field of nanoparticle catalyzed reaction. Synthesis of different metal and metal oxide nanoparticles and their composites along with their role as catalysts for nitrophenol reduction with varying reducing agents have been elucidated here. The progress of the reaction is conveniently monitored by UV-visible spectrophotometry and hence it becomes a universally accepted model reaction. In this review we have discussed the reaction kinetics considering its elegance and importance enlightening the long known Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism and Eley-Rideal mechanism at length, along with a few other mechanisms recently reported. A brief description of the synthetic procedures of various nanoparticles and their respective catalytic behaviour towards nitroarene reduction has also been accounted here.
