The cover picture shows the formation of one-dimensional nanochains of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) upon addition of a polyamine molecular linker. In the present work, the binding ability of this linker was exploited, bearing different functional groups, which favors the self-assembly of silver and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) into one-dimensional nanochains in aqueous solution. These nanochains ...
