Abstract EN
Synthesis and characterization of multiple crystalline silver nanowires (NWs) with uniform diameters were carried out by using 1,2-propandiol and ethylene glycol (EG) as comediated solvents and FeCl3 as mediated agent in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP).
Experimental data and structural characterizations revealed that AgNWs have evolved from the multiple crystalline seeds initially generated by reduction of AgNO3 with EG and 1,2-propandiol followed by reducing Fe(III) to Fe(II) which in turn reacts with and removes adsorbed atomic oxygen from the surfaces of silver seeds.
In addition, uniform silver nanowires were obtained by using FeCl2 and AlCl3 as mediated agents in EG solution.
Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed uniform nanowires in both diameter and length.
UV-Vis spectra showed adsorption peaks confirming the formation of nanowires.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns displayed the final product with high crystallinity and purity.
In this study, a growth mechanism for forming AgNWs was proposed and a comparison between different mediated agents was carried out.
