Abstract

An overview is given on the structure and stress release mechanism for small metallic particles grown by colloidal methods. Focus is on uncapped or bare particles of gold. Some discussion is also given to the case of capped particles of several noble metals. The problem of when a nanoparticle starts to become bulk-like is also addressed. It is shown that this transition is not abrupt but is rather a continuous transformation.
