Abstract
Octahedral silver nano-plates were synthesized from aqueous solution of silver nitrate and polyvinyl alcohol. The colloid formed is dried on glass plates by simple dip-coating method to inhibit the growth of the particles, and to analyze the samples. Samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscope (TEM), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques. The UV–Vis absorption spectra of these silver nano-plates revealed a high intense plasmon absorption peak near 425 nm. In addition three emission peaks were observed when the excitation was fixed at 222 nm.
