“…Over the past decades, silver nanoparticles have surfaced due to their special physico-chemical properties and wide applications in photography, catalyst, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection, molecular sensors, antibacterial agents, conductive pastes and inks [1][2][3][4][5]. Numerous chemical reduction methods including polyol, microemulsion, seed-mediated growth and biological synthesis have been attempted to prepare the silver nanoparticles.…”
