Title: A green synthesis method for large area silver thin film containing nanoparticles. Author: Shinde NM, Lokhande AC, Lokhande CD. Journal: J Photochem Photobiol B; 2014 Jul 05; 136():19-25. PubMed ID: 24836517. Abstract: The green synthesis method is inexpensive and convenient for large area deposition of thin films. For the first time, a green synthesis method for large area silver thin film containing nanoparticles is reported. Silver nanostructured films are deposited using silver nitrate solution and guava leaves extract. The study confirmed that the reaction time plays a key role in the growth and shape/size control of silver nanoparticles. The properties of silver films are studied using UV-visible spectrophotometer, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle, Fourier-transform Raman (FT-Raman) spectroscopy and Photoluminescence (PL) techniques. Finally, as an application, these films are used effectively in antibacterial activity study.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
