Peptide directed synthesis of silica coated gold nanocables.
Here we report a peptide directed synthesis of co-shell nanocables by sequential guide formation of silica insulating shells on metallic gold nanoribbons which is significant since it demonstrated the ability to fabricate a functional nano-electronic component using a biomimetic method.
