Figure 1
(a) Tapping-mode AFM image of bare gold nanocrystals on fused quartz substrate. (b) The gold nanocrystal size distribution was estimated from (a); the mean size of the gold nanocrystals was 13 ± 3 nm. (c) Single-layered bare gold nanocrystals on the fused quartz substrate. (d) Single-layered self-assembled molecules coated on gold nanocrystal surface and immersed in ethanol solution. Arrows from gold nanocrystals indicate the flow direction of thermal energy (Δq) from femtosecond laser-heated gold nanocrystals.
