Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been synthesized using maltose as reducing agent and microwave heating as reaction initiator. The nanoparticles are studied for their optical, structural, thermal, zeta potential and electrical properties. The synthesis protocol used is fast and resulted in the formation of multi-shaped AgNPs as indicated by their optical response and TEM. The crystallite size of nanoparticles and strain of the sample was found to be around 39 nm, and 2.3 x 10(-1), respectively, as calculated from XRD data. Zeta potential and electrical response both showed almost threefold increase for multi-shaped as compared to isotropic nanoparticles.
