Hydrogen peroxide detection with a silver nanoparticle grating chip fabricated by plasmonic plating
摘要： An optical detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is proposed, using grating structures of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Periodic line structures of AgNPs are deposited on a gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-decorated glass plate using an interference exposure with a green laser beam, based on the plasmonic plating method. This AgNP grating chip diffracts incident light, and the diffraction efficiency is dependent on the amount of AgNPs. By applying a drop of H2O2 solution onto the chip, the diffraction intensity declines due to the autocatalytic decomposition of AgNPs. A portable measurement system of the diffraction intensity change is constructed, and the H2O2 detection in the concentration range 6.7 – 668 μmol/L is performed in 2 min simply by dropping the H2O2 solution onto the substrate.

Visible-Light Plasmonic Enhancement of Catalytic Activity of Anisotropic Silver Nanoparticles
摘要： Synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in presence of copper salt (as the etchant) led to the formation of nanoparticle samples with different fractions of anisotropic particles. The proportion of anisotropic nanoparticles decreased with increase in ratio of precursor Cu salt in the preparation protocol. These AgNPs samples were found to catalyse p-nitrophenol reduction by glycerol and Fenton oxidation of methyl orange. The catalytic activity of these AgNPs samples for these reactions increased with the fraction of anisotropic nanoparticles in the catalyst samples. On conducting these reactions under cool white LED visible light, the catalytic activity of AgNPs catalyst samples increased by 2 to 3 times compared to that observed in dark. The photo-Fenton MO degradation catalytic activity obtained is among the best reported in literature. However, the order of the reaction did not change whether the reaction was conducted under visible light or in dark. Direct plasmonic catalytic mechanisms are proposed to explain the enhancement in reactivity under visible light.

Matrix-Independent Highly Conductive Composites for Electrodes and Interconnects in Stretchable Electronics
摘要： Electrically conductive composites (ECCs) hold great promise in stretchable electronics due to their printability, facile preparation, elasticity, and possibility for large area fabrication. A high conductivity at steady state and during mechanical deformation is a critical property for ECCs, and extensive efforts have been made to improve the conductivity. However, most of those approaches are exclusively functional to a specific polymer matrix, restricting their capability to meet other requirements such as the mechanical, adhesive and thermomechanical properties. Here we report a generic approach to prepare ECCs with conductivity close to that of bulk metals and maintain their conductivity during stretching. This approach iodizes the surfactants on the commercial silver flakes, and subsequent photo exposure converts these silver iodide nanoparticles to silver nanoparticles. The ECCs based on silver nanoparticles-covered silver flakes exhibit high conductivity because of the removal of insulating surfactants as well as the enhanced contact between flakes. The treatment of silver flakes is independent of the polymer matrix and provides the flexibility in matrix selection. In the development of stretchable interconnects, ECCs can be prepared with the same polymer as the substrate to ensure strong adhesion between interconnects and the substrate. For the fabrication of on-skin electrodes, a polymer matrix of low modulus can be selected to enhance conformal contact with the skin for reduced impedance.

Silver Nanoparticles - Fabrication, Characterization and Applications || Synthesis and Optical Properties of Highly Stabilized Peptide- Coated Silver Nanoparticles
摘要： The interaction between the silver nanoparticle and peptide surfaces has been of increased interest for the applications of bionanotechnology and tissue engineering. In order to completely understand such interactions, we have examined the optical properties of peptide-coated silver nanoparticles. However, the effect of peptide binding motif upon the silver nanoparticles surface characteristics and physicochemical properties of these nanoparticles remains incompletely understood. Here, we have fabricated sodium citrate stabilized silver nanoparticles and coated with peptide IVD (ID3). The optical properties of these peptide-capped nanomaterials were characterized by UV-visible, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and z-potential measurement. The results indicate that the interface of silver nanoparticles (AgNP)-peptide is generated using ID3 peptide and sug-gested that the reactivity of peptide is governed by the conformation of the bound pep-tide on the silver nanoparticle surface. The interactions of peptide-nanoparticle would potentially be used to fabricate specific functionality into the various peptide-capped nanomaterials and antibacterial applications.

Photocatalytic CO2 reduction on porous TiO2 synergistically promoted by atomic layer deposited MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver nanoparticles
摘要： In this work, a porous TiO2 photocatalyst derived from metal-organic framework MIL-125 was synthesized and tested for photocatalytic CO2 reduction with water. To improve the photocatalytic performance, innovative materials modifications were employed by decorating TiO2 with atomic layer deposited (ALD) MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver (Ag) nanoparticles at different orders: MgO deposition followed by Ag (i.e. Ag/MgO/TiO2), or Ag deposition followed by MgO (i.e. MgO/Ag/TiO2). The addition of Ag promoted transfer of photoinduced electrons, while the coating of an ultrathin MgO layer inhibited surface charge recombination and enhanced CO2 adsorption. The combination of MgO and Ag resulted in synergistic promotion on CO2 photoreduction greater than the sum of individual promotional effects. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalyst with 7 ALD-layers of MgO and 5% Ag was 14 times more active than the pristine TiO2 in terms of CO and CH4 production. In addition, the sequence of MgO/Ag decoration influenced the catalytic activity. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalysts were in general more active than the MgO/Ag/TiO2 counterparts, likely due to the different electron mobility and Ag nanoparticle distribution on the surface. This work for the first time reports the novel materials structure of ALD coated MgO and photodeposited Ag nanoparticles on TiO2, and it reveals the importance of optimizing materials morphology and structure to promote the catalytic activity.

Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Loaded onto Polymer-Inorganic Composite Materials and Their Regulated Catalytic Activity
摘要： We present a novel approach for the preparation of polymer-TiO2 composite microgels. These microgels were prepared by the in situ hydrolysis and condensation of titanium tetrabutoxide (TBOT) in a mixed ethanol/acetonitrile solvent system, using poly(styrene-co-N-isopropylacrylamide)/poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) (P(St-NIPAM/P(NIPAM-co-MAA)) as the core component. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were controllably loaded onto the polymer-TiO2 composite microgels through the reduction of an ammoniacal silver solution in ethanol catalyzed by NaOH. The results showed that the P(St-NIPAM)/P(NIPAM-co-MAA)-TiO2 (polymer-TiO2) organic-inorganic composite microgels were less thermally sensitive than the polymer gels themselves, owing to rigid O–Ti–O chains introduced into the three-dimensional framework of the polymer microgels. The sizes of the AgNPs and their loading amount were controlled by adjusting the initial concentration of [Ag(NH3)2]+. The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band of the P(St-NIPAM)/P(NIPAM-co-MAA)-TiO2/Ag (polymer-TiO2/Ag) composite microgels can be tuned by changing the temperature of the environment. The catalytic activities of the polymer-TiO2/Ag composite microgels were investigated in the NaBH4 reduction of 4-nitrophenol. It was demonstrated that the organic-inorganic network chains of the polymer microgels not only favor the mass transfer of the reactant but can also modulate the catalytic activities of the AgNPs by tuning the temperature.

Sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection of atrazine based on aggregation of silver nanoparticles modified carbon dots
摘要： The development of precise detection methods with simply operation for pesticides in various environmental samples is a particular challenge. Here a highly sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) approach for the selective detection of trace atrazine was proposed with R6G as a Raman reporter, which was adsorbed on silver nanoparticles modified carbon dots. The latter were prepared by the reduction of Ag+ by carbon dots. In the presence of atrazine, the aggregation of the modified carbon dots due to the interaction between silver nanoparticles and atrazine led to great enhancement of the SERS signal of R6G. Under optimal assay conditions, the limit of quantification was estimated to be 10 nM, which matched with the standard for drinking water quality of China and WHO defined limit. A good linear response to atrazine was found in the concentration range of 10-1000 nM with the relative standard deviations between 1.8% and 5.6%. The determination of atrazine in real water samples was also carried out to confirm the practicability of the proposed method, which showed the recoveries from 95% to 117.5%. The target induced aggregation for enhancing the signal offered great potential for sensitive on-site detection of atrazine in environments.

Silver nanoparticle-loaded filter paper: Innovative assembly method by nonthermal plasma and facile application for the reduction of methylene blue
摘要： In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were loaded onto commercial filter paper using a simple “suspending-discharging-washing” process. Nanosecond pulse dielectric barrier discharge (NP-DBD) plasma was used to perform the in-situ reduction-loading process in a plate-to-plate DBD reactor during the five-minute fabrication process. Gaseous ethanol was used as the reducing agent under an argon gas plasma treatment. There was no thermal treatment, which prefers the formation of small nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the synthesized AgNPs were well-dispersed over the surface of the filter paper. The synthesized nanoparticles were hemispherical and crystalline. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that the cellulose skeletons had been mostly maintained after the plasma discharge. The catalytic activity of the AgNPs paper was evaluated by the reduction reaction of methylene blue (MB) with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) using a straightforward filtration process.

Fabrication of Large Area Sub-200 nm Conducting Electrode Arrays by Self-Confinement of Spincoated Metal Nanoparticle Inks
摘要： Here, the fabrication of sub-200 nm metal wires from commercial silver inks with 50 nm particle size, 100 times narrower than with typical low-resolution ink-jet and screen printing in flexible electronics, is demonstrated. Using a combination of spincoating on prepatterned polymer substrates and flash lamp annealing, nanoparticles merge to wires featuring good electrical conductivity. With this method less than 150 nm thin wires can be generated from 2 μm wide or smaller V-grooves due to adapted dilution of particle content, self-confinement in V-grooves, shrinkage of line width during solvent evaporation, and sintering. After nanoimprinting, grooves made from PMMA are smoothened out by thermal reflow without affecting the wires. The resistivity of 300 μm long, 400 nm wires is similar to more conventional ink-jet printed wires with 10–50 μm widths.

Valorization of mutant Bacillus licheniformis M09 supernatant for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles: photocatalytic dye degradation, antibacterial activity, and cytotoxicity
摘要： The present study reports the optimization of a green method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) via reduction of Ag+ ions using cell-free supernatant of mutant Bacillus licheniformis M09. UV–Visible spectroscopy showing an absorption peak at ~ 430 nm confirmed the synthesis of AgNPs. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis exhibited spherical AgNPs within the size range of 10–30 nm. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) measurements assured the presence of effective functional molecules which could be responsible for stabilizing the AgNPs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern verified the crystalline nature of AgNPs. Furthermore, the synthesized AgNPs showed an excellent photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye in less than 3 h under visible light proving their potential as a catalytic agent for bioremediation for next-generation dye degradation in effluent treatment. The AgNPs demonstrated antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative foodborne pathogens which endorsed its suitability as agents to extend shelf-life in food packaging and food safety applications. The results also revealed a strong concentration-dependent cytotoxicity of AgNPs against human breast adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7), while 15.07 μg/mL of IC50 was attained. The outcome suggests the possible application of these AgNPs in nanomedicine formulations. Thus, these findings propose promising ways for the valorization of the waste fermentation supernatant left after cell harvesting and desired metabolite extraction.
