Nowadays noble metal nanoparticles occupy a prominent position in science and technology owing to their facile synthesis, ease of surface modification and excellent biocompatibility which offers countless applications in numerous fields of science. Though several noble metals are used for a variety of applications, silver nanoparticles is of great attentiveness due to its unique physical and chemical properties like optical, electrical, thermal, biological, and catalytic properties. Most of these properties depends on the shape and size of the synthesized silver nanoparticles. The manufacturing of silver nanoparticles with numerous shapes is very common today, so that we can control various properties, especially in the field of medicine by many researchers. In this article, we present a review of the synthesis of silver nanoparticles of different shapes through different methods and their peculiar applications. |
