Preface

This book focuses on the experimental, and to a lesser extent, theoretical, status of research on the preparation and characterization of noble metal nanoparticles and their conjugates, especially those of silver and gold. As such, this book starts with a brief overview of the foundation work concerned with the chapter topics which include nanomaterials, nanoscience, surface-capping molecules, and traditional and nontraditional reduction agents. Although not an exhaustive study, this book examines and summarizes existing achievements in the methods of noble metal nanoparticle synthesis with mainly spherical morphologies, highlighting how their physical and chemical properties are influenced by their change in the size, shape, and morphology. The book is organized into five chapters. Efforts have bee
