Abstract

Abstract : Conventional methods to remove capping ligands from noble metal nanocrystals often are harsh enough to have a negative impact on crystal morphology. However, ligand removal is desired to improve surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). To this end, Chuanbo Gao and co‐workers present a mild, robust and effective strategy to remove capping ligands in article number1700075 .
