Spectroscopic Study of the Growth Mechanism of Silver Microclusters
Source abstract
Abstract
Polymer-protected silver microclusters have been obtained by room-temperature alcoholic reduction of metal ions. Spectroscopic charcaterization has been performed to investigate the influence of aging of the protective polymeric layer
