This paper describes a general approach to the Large-Scale Synthesis of Metal Nanostructures with hollow interiors. Hollow nanostructures of noble metals are particularly interesting to synthesize and investigate because they exhibit plasmonic properties completely different from those of solid nanoparticles. These metallic hollow structures, having well-controlled sizes and shapes, are expected to find use in a number of applications.
