Shape-Controlled Synthesis of Gold and Silver Nanoparticles
Yugang Sun,Younan Xia +1 more
TL;DR: Monodisperse samples of silver nanocubes were synthesized in large quantities by reducing silver nitrate with ethylene glycol in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), characterized by a slightly truncated shape bounded by {100, {110}, and {111} facets.

Shape-controlled synthesis of metal nanostructures: the case of silver.
TL;DR: Investigating the growth mechanisms for silver nanocubes, nanowires, and nanospheres produced through a polymer-mediated polyol process found that the crystallinity of a seed and the extent of the PVP coverage on the seed were both instrumental in controlling the morphology of final product.

Mechanisms Controlling Crystal Habits of Gold and Silver Colloids
Charles Lofton,Wofgang Sigmund +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the presence and orientation of twin planes in these face-centered cubic (fcc) metals direct the shape of the growing particles, and the shape and structural data are presented for gold and silver particles synthesized using several different techniques to support this new model.

Synthesis and characterization of small platinum particles formed by the chemical reduction of chloroplatinic acid
TL;DR: In this article, the preparation of platinum particles by the chemical reduction of chloroplatinic acid has been investigated in detail and the morphology and size of the product depends on the nature of the reducing agent, the presence and type of protective agent, and the reduction conditions.

Thick-film Technology: An Introduction to the Materials
J. Larry,R. Rosenberg,R. Uhler +2 more
TL;DR: The use of thick-film technology to manufacture electronic circuits and discrete passive components continues to grow at a rapid rate worldwide as discussed by the authors, and it can be viewed as a means of packaging active devices, spanning the gap between monolithic integrated circuit chips and printed circuit boards with attached active and passive components.
