Title: Preparation of silica stabilized biological templates for the production of metal and layered nanoparticles

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1082748

The present invention relates to a system and method providing for increased silica growth on a bio-template, wherein the bio-template is pretreated with aniline to produce a uniform silica attractive surface and yielding a significant silica layers of at least 10 nm, and more preferably at least 20 nm in thickness, thereby providing for a high degree of stability to the bio-template.
