One-step formation of responsive “dumbbell” nanoparticle dimers via quasi-two-dimensional polymer single crystals

Abstract

We present a facile approach to synthesize “dumbbell” nanoparticle dimers via one-step coupling of nanoparticles and quasi-two-dimensional polymer single crystals. These dimers exhibit responsive properties enabled by flexible polymeric linkers.
