Mitroemulsion (water-in-oil) methods enable, the encapsulation of individual nanoparticles into SiO2 spheres. The major drawbacks of this method, when applied for silica encapsulation of anisotropic nanorods (NRS), are spatially unequal silica growth and long reaction times.(24 h at least). In this work, various tetraalkoxysilanes [tetramethyl otthosilicate (TMOS),. tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), and tetrapropyl orthosilicate (TPOS)] with different alkyl-chain lengths were used as silica precursors in attempt to tune the silanization behavior of CdSe/CdS NRs in a microemulsion system. We find enhanced spatial homogeneity of silica growth with decreasing 1-chain length of the tetraalloxysilanes. In particular, by use of TMOS as the precursor,NRs can he fully encapsulated in a continuous thin (<= 5 urn) silica shell within only 1 h. reaction time. Surprisingly, the thin-silica shell showed a superior shielding ability to acidic environment, even compared to the 30 nm thick shell Prepared by use of TEOS. Our investigations suggest that the lower steric hindrance of TMOS compared to TEOS or TPOS strongly promotes homogeneous growth of the silica shells, while its increased hydrolysis rate decreases the porosity of these shells.
