Abstract
Gold particles have been deposited at an immiscible electrolyte interf ace by electrochemical reduction of tetraoctylammonium tetrachloroaura te (TOAAuCl(4)) in 1,2-dichloroethane using potassium hexacyanoferrate (Ir) [K4Fe(CN)(6)] in water as the electron-transfer agent. The gold p articles are formed at the interface and not in the bulk phases, and t heir growth was monitored in situ by transmission UV-VIS spectroscopy. The observed spectra have been qualitatively analysed using Mie's the ory.
