We describe a modified polyol process for the synthesis of silver nanocrystals with uniform sizes ranging from several nanometers to similar to 20 nm. The Use of polyacrylic acid, in place of polyvinylpyrrolidone in the conventional polyol process, significantly limits the growth of silver nanocrystals, prevents the interparticle aggregation and fusion, and leads to a uniform Population of samples with high water Solubility. The size of nanocrystals can be conveniently tuned by controlling the reaction time, the concentration and chain length of the polymeric surfactants, and the reaction temperature. Uniform silver nanocrystals within sizes below 20nm are preferred candidates over larger particles for applications where high density of optical absorption is required, for example, for photothermal conversion in cancer therapy.
