Expandable photo-induced synthetic route to generate highly controlled noble metal nanoparticles

Au and Ag NPs have been synthesized through the photoinduced approach in wet chemistry method. By using the longer UV light (365 nm) irradiation, the obtained NPs showed high homogeneity and uniformity. Additionally, Au NPs can be well produced with fine homogeneity and size uniformity that was well controlled by changing the metal precursors.
