How to separate Au nano cubes from a mixture of rods, particles and pentavalent morphologies during synthesis, using CTAB surfactant?

I agree with John Clarkson
. Separation would be extremely difficult. There may be routes with centrifuge and a Cyclosizer, but I'm not confident of either strategy for what you want to do.Incidentally I don't see many, if any, cubes in your micrograph.
Thank you for your valuable suggestion. I am doing this for Plasmonic property.

Dear Professor,Alan F Rawla,
I am very thankful to you for your valuable suggestion on my question.
I am trying to prepare Au nanocubes for plasmonic properties. Unfortunately I didn't get uniform morphology i.e. Mixture of different shapes.
Can you please give me any idea about how can I prepare Au nanocubes?
Thanks and regards

may or may not have misread the question slightly and referred to Ag cubes when you're requiring Au cubes. The literature contains details. I think somewhere in here in these 2 webinars:Metal colloids - their preparation, application and characterization
