Under specific solution conditions, 2 nm (diameter) passivated gold nanocrystal compounds show preferential adsorption at boundaries between adjacent TiO2 crystallites. The extent of this preferential adsorption is dependent upon the concentration of the gold nanocrystals in toluene solutions. At high solution concentrations (>0.1 mg/mL), the nanocrystals align along the TiO2 crystallite boundaries, but also deposit nonpreferentially across the TiO2 crystallite faces. Below 0.1 mg/mL, the adsorption of the Au-nanocrystal compounds occurs nearly exclusively at the grain boundaries between adjacent TiO2 crystallites.
