METHODS FOR PRODUCING MULTIFACETED NANOPARTICLES USING POLYMER BRUSH ARCHITECTURES
Methods for producing multifaceted nanoparticles and uses thereof are disclosed. One method for producing multifaceted nanoparticles can include obtaining a template that includes a substrate and a polymer brush having a plurality of polymers each attached by a first end to the substrate and each having a free opposing second end located opposite the first end; contacting the polymer brush with a solution that includes a nanoparticle precursor material; and forming, from the precursor material and the functional groups located on the second end of the plurality of polymers, multifaceted nanoparticles. The second ends of the polymer chains are functionalized with functional groups that have an affinity for the facets of the multifaceted nanoparticles.
