Abstract
Description
The syntheses of hexadecylamine seed mediated Ag/M(M=Co, Ni, Pd and Pt) allied nanobimetallic particles were successfully carried out by the successive reduction of ligand capped metal ions with polyols, resulting in concomitant precipitation of some high index faceted hybrid Ag/M bimetal nanoparticles. The optical measurements revealed the existence of surface plasmon band and peak broadening that causes diffusion processes of the metal sols to decrease making it possible to monitor the changes spectrophotometrically. The bimetallic nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electron microscopy techniques which confirm the formation of alloyed clusters.
