While mask-based methods have been the norm for electroplating, the adoption of direct laser writing for flexible, real-time patterning has not been widespread. Through irradiation using a 405 nm laser and applying a voltage corresponding to a selective potential window specific to Au^(Ⅰ)Br_(2)^(-), we have shown that we can locally deposit elemental gold at the focal point of the laser. In addition to demonstrating the feasibility of the technique, we have collected data on the kinetics of the photoreduction reaction in ethanol and have deduced its rate law. We have confirmed the selective deposition of Au^(Ⅰ)Br_(2)^(-) within a potential window through controlled potential electrolysis experiments and through direct measurement on a quartz crystal microbalance. Finally, we have verified local deposition through scanning electron microscopy.展开更多

The new species comprise hydroxo-[Au（ppy）（OH）Cl]（2）, and [Au（ppy）（OH）2]（3）, oxo-[Au2（ppy）2（μ-O）2]（4）, acetate-[Au（ppy）（O2CMe2）] （5）, and alkoxo complexes-[Au（ppy）（OR）Cl]（6, 7） and [Au（ppy）（OR）2]（8--10）（R=Me, 6 and 8; Et, 7 and 9; Pr, 10）. The dihydroxo and the oxo complexes can be interconverted by refluxing the former in anhydrous THF and the latter in water. The hydroxides 2 and 3 and the acetato complex 5 undergo σ-ligand metathesis in ROH solution（R=Me, Et or Pr） to give the corresponding alkoxides.展开更多
