In the last last month most of the efforts were focused on photochemical methods and AFM trainigs.
Photodeposited Ag nanoparticles density and sizes were determined by AgNO3 solution concentration and illumination time respectively. Insteristing results were obtained when laser light intensity was changed. Low intensity resulted in steady state growth of the circular particles and high intensity resulted in nonsteady state growth and irregular particles shapes.
AFM training included investigations of rughness of polished Si wafers and TiO2 with NPs.
