Modulating absorption band of triangular silver nanoplates in aqueous solvent and on substrates using tannin as reducing agent
Triangular silver nanoplates in aqueous solvent and on the surface of quartz substrate have been synthesized by seed-mediated growth approach in the presence of tannin. It was found that both the amount of tannin and the small triangular silver nanoplate seeds added to the growth solution are the key factors to modulation absorption band of triangular silver nanoplates. The optical in-plane dipole surface plasmon resonance (SPR) bands of these Ag nanoplates can be tuned from 608 nm to 980 nm via tannin deoxidization method. The formation mechanism of triangular silver nanoplates was proposed. The tannin deoxidization method realizes a convenient modulation of the absorption band of Ag nanostructures within the visible near-infrared (IR) region both in aqueous solvent and on substrates under mild conditions.
