Graphical Abstract

Routenplanung für Atome: Über die Geschwindigkeit, mit der Ag-Atome aus einer Vorstufe erzeugt wurden, wurden die Keimbildung und das Wachstum von Ag auf Pd-Nanowürfeln mit sechs äquivalenten {100}-Seiten gesteuert. Drei Arten von Dimetall-Nanokristallen wurden erhalten: hybride Pd-Ag-Dimere, exzentrische Pd-Ag-Nanostäbe und Pd@Ag-Kern-Schale-Nanokristalle (siehe Schema).
