Abstract

The morphologies/dimensions of Au nanostructures can be tailored by merely controlling the reduction degree of graphene oxide surface. Au nanoparticles, long Au nanowires, and semicircular-shaped Au nanoplates are in situ synthesized on slightly, moderately, and highly reduced graphene oxide films respectively, without the need of any templating agent.
