Synthesis of silver nanoparticles with different shapes

Abstract

Today the synthesis of silver nanoparticles is very common due to their numerous applications in various fields. Silver nanoparticles have unique properties such as: optical and catalytic properties, which, depend on the size and shape of the produced nanoparticles. So, today the production of silver nanoparticles with different shapes which have various uses in different fields such as medicine, are noted by many researchers. This article, is an attempt to present an overview of the shape-controlled synthesis of silver nanoparticles using various methods. Keywords: Silver nanoparticles, Shape, Synthesis
