Abstract

The invention discloses a method for continuously fabricating silver nanowires. The method mixes a glycol solution of a silver salt and a glycol solution of a polyvinyl pyrrolidone, and the mixed solution reacts in a temperature range and a time range to form the silver nanowires. The polyvinyl pyrrolidone has high boiling point and reduction ability so as to reduce the silver salt to the silver nanoparticles, and simultaneously, the polyvinyl pyrrolidone can provide barriers for limiting the particle growth. Besides, the oxygen functional groups on the long chains of the polyvinyl pyrrolidone can keep the stably one-dimensional growth of the silver nanoparticles to form the silver nanowires during the aging process.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The invention relates to a method for continuously fabricating silver nanowires, and more particularly, the invention relates to a method for mass-producing high quality silver nanowires.

[0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art

[0004] One-dimensional nanostructure, such as nanowire, nanotube, nanorod, or nanofiber, has different characteristics from the one-dimensional macro-material. Recently, many businesses and groups continuously research the applications of the one-dimensional nanostructure and earn some important achievements. The applications include ultra-thin full-color LED panel, photocopy apparatus, field emission display, low power-consumption nanowire LED, and sensor for sensing NH3 or H2.

[0005] One-dimensional metal nanostructure, such as gold, tin, silver, or platinum nanowire, has well electrical characteristics so as to be applied to the materials of leading wires. Because the micro-effects, such as the surfa...
