Electrochemical Ostwald Ripening of Colloidal Ag Particles on Conductive Substrates
Abstract
Thermally evaporated silver nanoparticles on conducting substrates spontaneously evolve in size when immersed in pure water. The process was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and optical absorption spectroscopy. The particles are proposed to reform through an electrochemical Ostwald ripening mechanism driven by the size dependence of the work function and standard electrode potential. We also discuss prior literature experiments where this process appears to occur. Our results show the sensitivity of the electrochemical properties of metallic nanoparticles at relatively large sizes (approximately 50 nm).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
