Abstract
Se NPs. This synthetic approach is an effective pathway for maneuvering the size of interior voids by varying the concentration of chalcogenide ions in the reaction mixture. The insights gained from this work will enrich the synthetic toolbox at the nanoscale and guide us on the rational design of multicomponent plasmonic nanoparticles with precisely controlled hollow interiors and sophisticated geometries, further enhancing our capabilities to fine-tune the electronic, optical, compositional, and physicochemical properties.
