Electrochemical Crystallization of Plasmonic Nanostructures

We show how gold recrystallizes when under the influence of electrochemical potentials. This “cold annealing” occurs without charge transfer reactions and preserves nanoscale structural features. By performing the process on plasmonic nanostructures, grain growth is monitored noninvasively by optica...
