Light-induced reversible hydrophobization of cationic gold nanoparticles via electrostatic adsorption of a photoacid

The ability to switch the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of nanoparticles promises great potential for applications. Here we report a generic approach that allows hydrophobization of cationic surfaces by light-induced photoacid switching from the unbound zwitterionic form to the electrostatically bou...
