Complex nanostructures synthesized from nanoparticle colloids under an external electric field
Abstract
We present a novel method to synthesize complex nanostructured films through oriented connection of nanoparticles under an external electric field. Silver is taken as an example to validate the feasibility of this fabrication approach. The building blocks of the prepared silver films are able to be adjusted from nanoparticle to nanoflower, nanoplate, nanoslat, dendrite, and so forth, by either varying the deposition current density or changing the electrode. The obtained Ag complex structures show high SERS sensitivity. Importantly, this method can be extended to fabricate complex nanostructures of other materials, such as Cu(2)O. Further study of this new fabrication method may supply a simple and green method to realize various complicated nanostructures of different materials. The mechanism investigation is also important in understanding the assembly behavior of nanoparticles in the colloid under an external electric filed.

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.
