An intriguing formation of nanoscale buckles is discovered when an array of aligned silver nanowires was deposited onto prestrained polydimethylsiloxane substrates. The spacing distance between the resulting silver nanoparticles corresponds to the buckling wavelength of the silver nanowires. The buckled nanowires exhibit unique optical properties, such as interruption of scattered polarized pho...

Silver nano-colloids have been generated via Laser Ablation Synthesis in Solution (LASiS) system. Nanoparticle formation with particle size below 50 nm DI water was confirmed using UV-VIS spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) technique, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Supercapacitor structure, having dimension 11 mm x 10 mm, successfully Aerosol Jet printed on an untreated po...

A new approach of utilizing microwave to pattern gradient concentric silver nanoparticle ring structures has been presented. The width and height of a single ring and the space between adjacent rings can be adjusted by changing the silver colloidal concentration and the microwave output power. By simply enhancing the ambient vapour pressure to the saturated value during microwave-assisted evapo...

Abstract Nano-sintered silver has broad development prospects in the field of electronic packaging due to its excellent thermal conductivity and feasibility at low sintering temperatures. In this paper, by using molecular dynamics simulations, a single nano-silver particle is sintered, melting temperature range obtained. Then, SiC/nano-Ag/Cu sintered sample prepared. By observing formation proc...

Abstract Eremurus spectabilis is a new, commercially valuable specialty cut flower, but little known about the applicable treatments to extend vase-life and maintaining ornamental quality of this flower. Therefore, present study was aimed at investigating impacts nano-silver, essential oils, chemical on keeping inflorescences Foxtail lily. The were placed in different vase solutions containing ...

An experiment was conducted in CRD, which two factors were evaluated viz., different wrapping materials and levels of Silver Nano Particles taken to observe the effect shelf life cut rose. Different SNP at 10,20,30, 40 ppm along with such as- Butter paper, LDPE, aluminium foil newspaper as control used refrigerated condition. Present study concluded that roses had longest 30 NS (Nano Silver) BC...

Skin infection caused by Tricophyton rubrum and some opportunistic fungi such as Candida. Albicance and Aspergillus. fumigatus occur in various parts of the body and sometimes are difficult to be treated. Antifungal effects of spherical silver nanoparticles (nano-Ag) were investigated in this study. Although silver nanoparticle has long been used as effective inorganic antifungal agent; the ant...

The search for active catalysts that efficiently oxidize methane under ambient conditions remains a challenging task for both C1 utilization and atmospheric cleansing. Here, we show that when the particle size of zinc oxide is reduced down to the nanoscale, it exhibits high activity for methane oxidation under simulated sunlight illumination, and nano silver decoration further enhances the phot...

Physical, mechanical and antimicrobial properties of nylon 6 (polycaprolactam) doped with different amounts of silver nanoparticles were investigated in this study. Two series of filament yarns counts (20 and 70 Denier) were produced by melt spinning method with different amounts of silver nanoparticles contents (0, 0.5, 1 and 4 wt%). Elemental analysis of silver and titanium dioxide (present i...

The field of nanoparticle (NP) sizing encompasses a wide array of techniques, with electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering (DLS) having become the established methods for NP quantification; however, these techniques are not always applicable. A new and rapidly developing method that addresses the limitations of these techniques is the electrochemical detection of NPs in solution. The '...
