41. An alternative explanation for the increased effective particle stability could be that a reduced number of polymer ligands are necessary to stabilize particles in polymeric embedding media as compared to low-molecular-weight solvents. A detailed understanding of this processes will require a more systematic analysis of the surface chemistry of embedded gold particle systems (or gold model surfaces) as a function of thermal processing using techniques such as XPS. This is beyond the scope of the present work.
