“…Silver dendrites have been synthesised by various techniques, including template method (where poly (vinyl alcohol), poly (vinyl pyrrolidone), Raney Nickel and monocrystalline silicon serve as templates), template less direct growth (aging a silver salt with reducing agent), electrochemical method (electrochemical reduction of Ag+ ions), electroless metal deposition/galvanic displacement (micro electrochemical redox reaction on Si wafer, Cu and Al foil substrates), sonoelectrochemical method (applying ultrasound to the electrochemical method), microwave, photoreduction, and wet‐chemical route (reduction of silver ions in solution with soluble reducing agents) . However, the disadvantages including unwanted by‐product formation and difficulty to avoid contamination in the template method, immature dendrites due to low reaction progress in the template less direct growth method, morphological transition due to relaxation process in electrochemical method are notable .…”
