When a AuIII precursor is added into a colloidal suspension of a-Se nanospheres, galvanic replacement occurs between them and the resultant Au0 atoms then heterogeneously nucleate and grow from the surface of the a-Se nanospheres. As a unique feature of this system, the Au0 atoms can only be produced on the surface of the a-Se nanospheres in the nucleation stage. Once Au nuclei are formed on the surface at the very beginning of a synthesis, they will serve as the preferential sites for further deposition of Au0 atoms, making it possible to control the number of Au nanoparticles on each nanosphere and the morphology of the final product. The dependence of the initial reduction rate on the pH can be used to obtain Se–Au hybrid nanoparticles containing one, two, three, and multiple Au nanoparticles on the surface of each a-Se nanosphere. The presence of Au patches on the hybrid nanoparticles offers an experimental handle to optimize the ligand distribution for the achievement of enhanced cellular uptake and cytotoxicity for the a-Se nanospheres.
