Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the growth mechanism of gold nanorods grown in an aqueous surfactant solution. For the elongation of gold nanorods, it is important to sustain the metastable gel phase of surfactant for a long time and to coexist with micellar phase. Although high temperature and pressure were necessary for the growth of long silver nanorods in previous study, by applying the synthesis of gold nanorods to silver, we succeeded to make long silver nanorods with the length of over 1 micrometer under room temperature and pressure. Our silver nanorods also showed an antibacterial ability against E. Coli.
