1 Supporting Information Experimental Materials: For the gold nanocuboids, the chemicals gold (ш) chloride trihydrate, sodium borohydride, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, copper sulfate, L-ascorbic acid were all purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used without further purification. The glass vials used for synthesis were obtained from Fisher Scientific. Solvents for nanoparticles functionalization were freshly distilled prior to use. All stirrer bars were soaked in aquaregia (mixture of 1:3 volume ratio of nitric acid:hydrochloric acid) for at least 1 hour, washed with deionized water (18.2 MΩ.cm) and dried in an oven before use. Nanoparticles were washed in Rotina (model 380R) and Profuge (model 14D) centrifuges. Synthesis of gold nanocubes: We followed the seed-mediated method developed by Sun et al.. 1 A gold seed solution was prepared by reducing 6.25 ml of HAuCl4 3H2O (1.0 mm) with 0.15 ml of ice-cold sodium borohydride aqueous solution (NaBH4, 0.1 M) in the presence of ml of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide aqueous solution (CTAB, 0.1 M). The NaBH4 solution was added at once to solution containing CTAB and gold precursor. We left the reaction mixture to stir for 4 hours before proceeding to the next step. For the growth solution of gold nanocubes, 20.0 ml of CTAB (0.02 M) was added to a clean polypropylene tube, followed by the addition of 5.0 ml of HAuCl4 3H2O (2.0 mm) aqueous solution. Then we added 50 µl of copper sulfate (CuSO4, 0.01 M) aqueous solution, 3.0 ml of L-ascorbic acid (L-AA, 0.1 M) and 5.0 µl of gold seed solution sequentially. The solution was gently mixed by inversion of the test tube after the addition of each component.
2 TEM experiments: We transferred 1.0 ml of the cuboidal gold nanoparticles solution from the glass vial into a 1.5 ml-centrifuge tube. Centrifugation and redispersion in water was performed twice at rpm for 10 minutes in order to minimise the concentration of CTAB prior to loading to the liquids cells. Note that too many times of washing (centrifuge and redisperse) will cause the deformation of Au cuboids. 10 µl of 10 mm ascorbic acid aqueous solution was added into the as-washed Au cuboids solution. Approximately 500 nl of the resulting solution was loaded into a liquid TEM cell, which comprised of two ultrathin ( 30 nm) electron translucent SiNx membranes separated by 200 nm. Prior to solution loading, these liquid-cells were oxygen plasma treated to make their SiNx membrane surfaces hydrophilic. We used a Hummingbird Scientific Liquid Flow holder and a JEOL 2010FEG TEM operated at 200 kv for in-situ imaging with low electron doses ranging from 50 to 150 e/(å 2 s), acquiring images at a rate of 10 frames per second with an ORIUS SC200 CCD camera (Gatan, Inc.). The reaction was followed in real-time by observing cuboids found in 30 micron by 200 micron window of the TEM liquid-cell. We pre-mixed the ascorbic acid with Au cube solution and loaded the resulting mixture into the liquid cell. We introduced the silver precursor solution via a flowing tube (diameter of 200 µm and length of 50 cm) connected to a syringe pump at a flow rate of 10 µl/min into the liquid cell. The nanocubes were continuously imaged during the delivery of the silver precursor solution. The movies were recorded when we first observed visible changes to the Au cubes (t = 0). Thus, the time lag between injection and visualization of growth is merely the time delay (~90 seconds) required for the liquid to be pushed from the syringe into the liquid cell. S2
3 The high-angle annular dark-field scanning TEM (HAADF-STEM) imaging and chemical analysis were performed with an FEI Titan TEM equipped with a Schottky electron source operated at 200 kv. We obtained the STEM images by using an electron probe with an approximate diameter of 0.3 nm. EDX was performed with a probe ca. 0.5 nm in diameter with 150 ms acquisition time for each spectrum. The Inspect3D software from FEI was used for 3D tomography reconstruction. 1. UV-Vis Spectroscopy Figure S1 show the low magnification TEM images of the ex-situ prepared gold nanocubes before (a) and after (c) reacting with the silver nitrate aqueous solution. The UV-Vis spectra in figure S1b indicates that this reduction reaction happened within one minute (the spectra was collected right after the addition of silver nitrate solution), the color of the solution changed instantly from purple to red color. Fig. S1 Low magnification TEM images of ex-situ prepared gold nanocuboids (a) before and (c) after reacting with silver nitrate aqueous solution. (b) UV-vis spectra of the solution before (purple) and after (red) adding the silver nitrate aqueous solution. The insets show the corresponding photographs of the solutions. S3
4 2. The role of AA Figure S2 show the TEM images of the in-situ prepared Au/Ag nanostructures after reacting with silver nitrate solution without (a) and with (b) ascorbic acid. As mentioned in the main text, we observed inhomogeneous coating of silver onto the Au cubes without the presence of the ascorbic acid (Fig. S2a). In contrast, the addition of ascorbic acid resulted in well-defined Au-Ag core-shell nanostructures as shown in Fig. S2b. Fig. S2 TEM images of gold nanocubes after reacting with (a) silver nitrate solution without ascorbic acid (b) silver nitrate solution with ascorbic acid. In addition, we found out that the silver shell transformed from a cubic shape into a truncated cubic/octahedral shape, the assymmetric growth of Ag on Au becomes more and more symmetric (See Fig. S3 a-c) upon increasing the concentration of the reducing agent. The ex-situ prepared Au-Ag core-shell nanostructures show that the growth of the Ag layer results in the development of {100} facets changing to {110} facets as the reduction proceeds. It is also worth noting that the thickness of the shells (See Fig. 2g and 2h for histograms) are similar for both ex-situ and in-situ observation. These observations explain S4
5 our in-situ results where the Ag layer grows and develops into {110} facets when an additional reduction source (the electron beam) is present. Fig. S3 TEM images of gold nanocubes after reacting with fixed amount of 20 µl of 10 mm silver nitrate solution and 10 mm of ascorbic acid of (a) 10 µl (b) 50 µl (c) 200 µl. 3. TEM Diffraction Figure S4 (a) and (c) show the TEM images of the individual nanostructure and the corresponding electron diffraction patterns before and after reacting with the silver solution. The electron patterns suggest that the gold nanocubes are single crystals with {100} facets before reacting with the silver nitrate solution. The Au-Ag core-shell nanostructure show a diffraction pattern consistent with {110} and {111} facets. The nanostructure in panel (f) shows a cubohedron enclosed by {111} and {110} facets. It must be noted that the lattice parameters of gold and silver are nearly identical, so we are not able to distinguish between gold and silver diffraction spots directly, but STEM-EDX can make this distinction (see Fig. S5). S5
6 Fig. S4 TEM images of a gold nanocube (a) before and (c) after reacting with silver nitrate aqueous solution in the presence of AA and their corresponding diffraction patterns (b) and (d) respectively. (e) and (f) show the high resolution TEM images of a Au-Ag core-shell nanostructure and its corresponding FFT (g). 4. Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy Figure S5 shows (a and c) STEM images and the coressponding EDX line scans (b and d) from a single Au-Ag core-shell nanostructure. As expected, the line scans suggest that the shell consisted of silver and the core of gold. The intensity in the HAADF-STEM images scales with the atomic number of the elements present in the sample: Ag (47) and Au (79). 2 This is consistent with our EDX observation in figure S5 where the silver layer was deposited onto the gold nanocube. S6
7 Fig. S5 (a) and (c) HAADF-STEM images of two Ag/Au core-shell nanostructures; (b) and (d) EDX line-scan profiles of the same structure, respectively. The yellow line plots the gold counts; the blue line the silver counts from the location of the white arrow in panel (a) and (c) respectively. 5. 3D HAADF-STEM Tomography We conducted HAADF-STEM tomography to obtain a 3-dimensional view of the Au- Ag core-shell nanostructures. 3 We tilted the substrate from -65 to 65 with respect to the horizontal axis of the nanocube while recording TEM images at intervals of 2 at high tilt angle and 3 at low tilt angle. We brought the series of images to one rotation axis by aligning all images accurately and reconstructed a 3D volume over 57 STEM images eventually. The reconstructed 3D volume shows a rounded silver shell coating on the gold S7
8 nanocube (See SI for the movie 4). In addition, the HAADF-STEM images in Figure S6(c) reveal that the core of the structure appears to be brighter (higher intensities) which were indicated by red dotted lines. The intensity in the HAADF-STEM images scales with the atomic number of the elements present in the sample: Ag (47) and Au (79). 2 This is consistent with our EDX observation in Figure S5. Fig. S6 Surface-rendered visualization of the Au-Ag core-shell nanostructure morphology reconstructed by HAADF-STEM tomography, viewed along the (a) [100] and (b) [001] axes. (c) HAADF-STEM tomography images of an individual nanostructure where the substrate was tilted from -65 to 65. (d) Schematic illustration showing the top view of the above structure. S8
9 6. Aged gold nanocubes Figure S7 shows TEM images of aged gold nanocubes (aging time: ~ 2 hours) after the washing procedure. The lack of capping agent CTAB at higher surface energy facets such as {100} and {110} causes the corners of the nanocubes to round, and eventually became quasi-spherical gold nanoparticles with thermodynamically most favourable {111} facets. Fig. S7 (a) and (b) TEM images of aged nanocubes at room temperature for ~2 hours after the washing procedure. 7. Concentration of CTAB To further demonstrate that the CTAB concentration plays a minor role, we performed similar in-situ experiments by dispersing the Au nanocubes in 0.1 mm and 1.0 mm of CTAB solution along with 0.1 mm AA which are shown in Fig. S8. In both cases, core-shell nanoparticles were formed (Fig. S8a and b). The critical micelle concentration (CMC) for CTAB is around 1 mm ( mm), 4-5 and the CTAB micelles do not participate in stabilizing gold {100} facets. Figure S9 shows the detailed dynamics of Au- Ag core-shell NP formation in the presence of 0.1 mm CTAB (which is well-below CMC) S9
10 and that the reaction proceeds in a similar fashion as the reaction without CTAB described in the main text (Fig. 2). Therefore, we conclude that CTAB s role here is only to stabilize gold {100} facets and does not contribute to growth of Ag shell. Fig. S8 TEM images of in-situ prepared gold nanocubes reacting with the silver nitrate aqueous solution in the presence of 0.1 mm ascorbic acid and (a) 1.0 mm and (c) 0.1 mm CTAB solution. Fig. S9 (a-d) Time-lapse TEM images of in-situ prepared Au-Ag core-shell nanoparticle at 0.1 mm CTAB and 0.1 mm ascorbic acid. 8. Different capping agent: Cetyltrimethylammonium choride (CTAC) We also repeated the experiment by replacing the CTAB with CTAC. Figure S10 shows the in-situ synthesized nanoparticles in the presence of CTAC, both with (Fig. S10a) and (Fig. S10b & c) without AA. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of CTAC 6 is mm. Thus, we are able to image the Au cube clearly at 1.0 mm CTAC concentration. We observed conformal shell growth on the Au cube only in the presence of AA. A regular shell grows in the presence of AA (Fig. S10c) but an irregular structure S10
11 forms in the absence of AA (Fig. S10b). These results further support that AA significantly contributes to the conformal shell formation. Fig. S10 (a) Time-lapsed TEM images of the in-situ prepared gold nanocubes reacting with the silver nitrate aqueous solution in the presence of 0.1 mm ascorbic acid and 1.0 mm CTAC solution. TEM images of the in-situ prepared gold nanocubes reacting with the silver nitrate aqueous solution in the 1.0 mm CTAC solution without ascorbic acid: (b) irregular shell structure (c) no shell formation.
