This experiment is composed with two existed paper, one is to synthesis AgNWs with Psidium Guajava seed, and the other one is to synthesis transparent conductive layer by transferring AgNWs which are light sintered by Riso print Gocco lamps. Guava seeds contain some compounds, such as polyphenols and alkaloids, which can reduce silver nitrate under certain conditions, thereby promoting the growth and stability of silver nanowires. These compounds acted as reducing agents and stabilizers during the preparation process, thus enabling a green synthesis method without external stabilizers. For the light sintering of AgNWs, a local Japanese toy kit "RISO PRINT GOCCO LAMP" is used to replace the IPL (intense pulsed light) in the original paper. The sintered AgNWs is formed on glass and then be transferred to a PVB film.

3 beakers of mixtures of silver nitrate and guava seed extraction were created with different concentration of guava seed extraction, 1. silver nitrate solution mixed with distilled water, 2. silver nitrate solution mixed with guava seed extraction heat stirred for 50 mins, 3. silver nitrate solution mixed with guava seed extraction heat stirred for 4 hours. All beakers were given UV exposure for 4 hours, the color of the second and 3rd mixture were changed from milky white to orange, it is filtered by filter paper and a final orange solution is collected. The final sample is centrifuged and the aggregations are also collected. Only the orange final solution was analyzed with UV-vis.

Part I, bio synthesis of the Ag-NW

This experiment is composed with two existed paper, one is to synthesis AgNWs with Psidium Guajava seed, and the other one is to synthesis transparent conductive layer by transferring AgNWs which are light sintered by Riso print Gocco lamps. Guava seeds contain some compounds, such as polyphenols and alkaloids, which can reduce silver nitrate under certain conditions, thereby promoting the growth and stability of silver nanowires. These compounds acted as reducing agents and stabilizers during the preparation process, thus enabling a green synthesis method without external stabilizers. For the light sintering of AgNWs, a local Japanese toy kit "RISO PRINT GOCCO LAMP" is used to replace the IPL (intense pulsed light) in the original paper. The sintered AgNWs is formed on glass and then be transferred to a PVB film.

Experiments

The experiment process is introduced below in the gallery. The process aims to repeat the result introduced in the paper "UV-Light Mediated Biosynthesis of Silver Nanowires; Characterization, Dye Degradation Potential and Kinetic Studies". The first attempt was made in BioClub Tokyo. Additionally, 3 groups of mixtures with different concentration of guava seed extraction was prepared: 1. silver nitrate solution mixed with distilled water, 2. silver nitrate solution mixed with guava seed extraction heat stirred for 50 mins, 3. silver nitrate solution mixed with guava seed extraction heat stirred for 4 hours. All beakers are put under UV exposure for 4 hours, the color of the second and 3rd mixture were changed from milky white to orange. The orange solution and the aggregations were collected separately, but only the solution was examined by the UV-vis spectrum in Tokyo.

The Ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy test was supported by Shohei Asami, member of Bioclub.

UV-Vis spectra of Ag-NWs synthesis with Taiwan guava seeds, datais provided by Shohei Asami. The result match up the graph in the paper, but it's overall lower, it might due to its lower density.

SEM result

The scanning electron microscopy is kindly supported by Joakim Reuteler in ETH Zurich. 2 samples of guava seeds synthesised AgNWs were prepared, one is AgNW solution dried on glass, the other one is aggregation collected from the solution. However we didn't find any wire-alike shape, indicating the failure of the nano wire synthesis.

Part II, Gacco Lamp Sintered AgNWs PVM film

Continued with the first part, in the original paper, the AgNWs is sintered by IPL (intense pulsed light) but due to the high price of IPL, I decided to try something else. I found a type of light bulb that generate sudden high heat in a Japanese toy kit RISO PRINT GOCCO LAMP which is introduced by the founder of Bioclub, Georg Tremmel. The original purpose of the bulb is to create mask for riso print. The original usage please visit RISO PRINT GOCCO LAMP tutorial. The follow on practices is documented in page Conductive thin coating made of AgNWs.

A conductive, uniform, and ultra-smooth flexible transparent composite film is produced by embedding silver nanowires (AgNWs) into poly(vinyl-butyral) (PVB) without pressure or high-temperature annealing.
