Abstract
Injectable fiducial markers are crucial in image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) due to their minimally invasive operations and improved patient compliance. This study presents the development of a ready-to-use injectable fiducial marker utilizing alginate stabilized-gold nanoparticles (alg-Au NPs) and a body temperature-activated in situ gel-forming system. Gram-scale alg-Au NPs were prepared in an hour by a green microwave-induced plasma-in-liquid process (MWPLP). Sodium alginate was introduced in this process to avoid aggregation between Au NPs, which ensured their stability and injectability. The gelation behavior of alginate with divalent cations and a temperature-dependent release of calcium source (glucono-delta-lactone (GDL) and CaCO3) served as the foundation of the body temperature-activated in situ gel-forming system. The injectable fiducial marker GDL/CaCO3/alg-Au NPs could maintain a liquid state at a low temperature for a higher injectability. After injection, on the other hand, Ca2+ would be released due to the body temperature-activated hydrolysis of GDL and the subsequent reaction with CaCO3, which would initiate the gelation of alginate. The injectable fiducial marker can be therefore delivered via injection and form gel at target site to avoid marker movement or Au NPs leakage after injection. Rheological measurements demonstrate the stability and gelation behavior of GDL/CaCO3/alg-Au NPs at different temperatures. Furthermore, the injectability and imaging ability of GDL/CaCO3/alg-Au NPs were also examined. In summary, ready-to-use injectable fiducial marker GDL/CaCO3/alg-Au NPs were developed via a green and facile method for IGRT.

Abstract
A one-step preparation of alginate-stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) using the microwave-induced plasma-in-liquid process (MWPLP) was reported. Effects of alginate with various concentrations on the preparation and properties of the synthesized Au NPs, including reaction rate, morphology, size, and optical absorption property, were studied. The introduction of alginate (1) accelerated the reaction rate, (2) prevented aggregation and precipitation due to long time discharge in MWPLP, and (3) provided long-term colloidal stability. An abnormal size change (from large to small) of Au NPs during particle growth, which was opposite to the typical change in bottom-up chemical reduction, was observed and a possible mechanism was proposed based on the dynamical and thermodynamical instability of particles during growth. The strategy of drying and redispersion of Au NPs in alginate solution was also studied. The drying and redispersion process had an imperceptible effect on the Au NPs. As a consequence, this strategy might be an effective technique for the long-term storage of Au NPs and other metal NPs. The alginate-stabilized Au NPs without the addition of toxic reducing or stabilizing agents can be appropriate to biomedical applications.

Abstract
When an aqueous Au(III) solution containing 1-butanol was sonicated under Ar, Au(III) was reduced to Au(0) to form Au particles. This is because various reducing species are formed during sonication, but the reactivity of these species has not yet been evaluated in detail. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the effects of Au(III) on the rates of the formation of gaseous and water-soluble compounds (CH4, C2H6, C2H4, C2H2, CO, CO2, H2, H2O2, and aldehydes), and the rate of Au(III) reduction as a function of 1-butanol concentration. The following facts were recognized: 1) for Au(III) reduction, the contribution of the radicals formed by the pyrolysis of 1-butanol was higher than that of the secondary radicals formed by the abstraction reactions of 1-butanol with ·OH, 2) ·CH3 and CO acted as reductants, 3) the contribution of ·H to Au(III) reduction was small in the presence of 1-butanol, 4) aldehydes and H2 did not act as reductants, and 5) the types of species that reduced Au(III) changed with 1-butanol concentration.

Abstract
Pt/Au alloy nanoparticles (NPs) in a wide composition range have been synthesized by room-temperature simultaneous sputter deposition from two independent magnetron sources onto liquid PEG (MW = 600). The prepared NPs were alloyed with the face-centered cubic (fcc) structure. In addition, the particle sizes, composition, and shape are strongly correlated but can be tailored by an appropriate variation of the sputtering parameters. No individual particle but large agglomerates with partial alloy structure formed at Pt content of less than 16 atom %. Highly dispersed NPs with no agglomeration were observed in PEG when the quantity of Pt is more than 26 atom %. On the other hand, a small amount of Pt could terminate the agglomeration of Au when sputtering on the grids for transmission electron microscope observation. Our experiment and computer simulation carried out by two different methods indicate that the composition-dependent particle size of Pt/Au can be explained by the atomic concentration, formation energy of the cluster, and interaction between different metal atoms and the PEG molecule.

Abstract
Tin (Sn) has a low melting temperature, i.e., 231.9 °C for the bulk, and the capability to form compounds with many metals. The galvanic reaction between Sn nanoparticles (NPs) as the core and silver nitrate at room temperature under argon gas in an organic solvent without any reducing power, was employed for the first time to coat an Ag–Sn intermetallic shell, i.e., Ag3Sn and/or Ag4Sn, on Sn NPs. For spherical Sn NPs, the NPs retained a spherical shape after coating. Uniform and Janus structures consisting of a β-Sn core with Ag–Sn shell were observed in the resulting NPs and their population related to the input molar ratios of the metal precursors. The observation of the intermetallic shell is general for both spherical and rod-shape Sn NPs. The formation of the intermetallic shell indicated that two reactions occurred sequentially, first reduction of Ag ions to Ag atoms by the Sn core, followed by interdiffusion of Ag and Sn to form the Ag–Sn intermetallic shell. Coating of Ag–Sn intermetallic compound on Sn nanoparticles at room temperature.![]()

Abstract
We use a green sputtering technique to deposit a Pt/Cu alloy target on liquid polyethylene glycol (PEG) to obtain well-dispersed and stable Pt29Cu71 alloy nanoparticles (NPs). The effects of sputtering current, rotation speed of the stirrer, sputtering time, sputtering period, and temperature of PEG on the particle size are studied systematically. Our key results demonstrate that the aggregation and growth of Pt/Cu alloy NPs occurred at the surface as well as inside the liquid polymer after the particles landed on the liquid surface. According to particle size analysis, a low sputtering current, high rotation speed for the stirrer, short sputtering period, and short sputtering time are found to be favorable for producing small-sized single crystalline alloy NPs. On the other hand, varying the temperature of the liquid PEG does not have any significant impact on the particle size. Thus, our findings shed light on controlling NP growth using the newly developed green sputtering deposition technique.

A new synthesis method, "chloride flux growth in the rigid nanospace of mesoporous silica", was developed to obtain lithium niobium oxide anisotropic nanoparticles. The morphologies reflect the pore size and shape of the used mesoporous silicas. This method has great potential for synthesizing size-tuned anisotropic nanoparticles of other complex metal oxides.

The effects of pH variation on the catalytic activity of IrO2 nanoparticles (NPs) doped with Cr (an early transition metal) or Ni (a late transition metal) depending on the amount of defect structures on the NP surfaces were analyzed. It was found that both Cr@IrO2 and Ni@IrO2 NPs, fabricated under basic conditions (pH = 13.5) denoted as Cr@IrO2-B and Ni@IrO2-B, respectively, were the best catalysts among the eight tested ones. Moreover, it was confirmed that variation in pH resulted in the changes in the surface area (defect structure), which were considered to be responsible for the changes in the catalytic properties of these NPs. For the oxygen evolution reaction, these NPs exhibited relatively smaller overpotential (η) values than other tested Cr@IrO2- and Ni@IrO2-containing NPs. Furthermore, methylene blue degradation analysis and OH radical formation experiments by benzoic acid showed the same trend. Thus, we confirmed that the catalytic activity of transition metals doped IrO2 NPs fabricated under basic conditions can be improved.

Abstract
Much attention has been paid to the synthesis of low-dimensional materials from small units such as functional molecules. Bottom-up approaches to create new low-dimensional materials with various functional units can be realized with the emerging concept of nanoarchitectonics. In this review article, we overview recent research progresses on materials nanoarchitectonics at two-dimensional liquid interfaces, which are dimensionally restricted media with some freedoms of molecular motion. Specific characteristics of molecular interactions and functions at liquid interfaces are briefly explained in the first parts. The following sections overview several topics on materials nanoarchitectonics at liquid interfaces, such as the preparation of two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks, and the fabrication of low-dimensional and specifically structured nanocarbons and their assemblies at liquid-liquid interfaces. Finally, interfacial nanoarchitectonics of biomaterials including the regulation of orientation and differentiation of living cells are explained. In the recent examples described in this review, various materials such as molecular machines, molecular receptors, block-copolymer, DNA origami, nanocarbon, phages, and stem cells were assembled at liquid interfaces by using various useful techniques. This review overviews techniques such as conventional Langmuir-Blodgett method, vortex Langmuir-Blodgett method, liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation, instructed assembly, and layer-by-layer assembly to give low-dimensional materials including nanowires, nanowhiskers, nanosheets, cubic objects, molecular patterns, supramolecular polymers, metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks. The nanoarchitecture materials can be used for various applications such as molecular recognition, sensors, photodetectors, supercapacitors, supramolecular differentiation, enzyme reactors, cell differentiation control, and hemodialysis.
