11/12 - 11/13 (Day 15 and 16) AuNPs were synthesized on 11/12 following the same concentrations, procedures and incubation periods as done in previous runs. New Au Seed (made on 11/6) was used, we are hopeful for better SEM results from these samples Results: Cubic samples mostly crashed out during centrifugation Purple waste (mix of supernatants from various AuNPs) was also analyzed on SEM SEM Images: SEM of Cubic AuNPs shown above. SEM of Octahedral AuNPs shown above. SEM of Purple Waste shown above. SEM of RD samples, best looking samples to date. We credit the new Au Seed/solutions as potentially changing the quality of sample.
