	abstract = {<p>The paper reports on a facile one-pot synthesis of a tri-component gold nanoparticle/molybdenum cluster/graphene oxide (AuNPs@Mo-GO) nanohybrid composite. The synthetic methodology consists on direct UV irradiation of an aqueous solution containing graphene oxide (GO), Na-2[Mo6Br8(N-3)(6)], HAuCl4 center dot 3H(2)O and isopropanol at room temperature in air using a UV fiber lamp. The composite material exhibits very high photocatalytic activity for the degradation of rhodamine B under visible light irradation. The resulting nanohybrid material was characterized using Raman spectroscopy, UV-vis spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

	abstract = {<p>Self-assembly of nanoparticles is an efficient technique where nanobuilding blocks spontaneously organize into ordered structures by thermodynamic and other constraints. We demonstrate that multifunctional Silicon (Si) nanostructures with unique morphologies like sheets, plates and flakes can be etched chemically by taking an advantage of natural self-assembly of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) characterized with drying kinetics under external stimuli. We further demonstrated antireflection properties of the as-synthesized Si nanostructures.</p>},
