Metallic nanorods are highly interesting materials from many points of view as elements in future nanoscale electronic circuits as sensors as catalysts as optical elements in future nanoscale optical devices. Gold and silver nanorods have distinct visible absorption and scattering spectra that are tunable with aspect ratio. Many workers have developed wet synthetic routes to these nanomaterials, with control of aspect ratio a key improvement compared to the synthesis of simple nanospheres. Another key area for which improvements need to be made is the understanding of the atomic arrangements of the different faces of crystalline...
