Show affiliationsWe examined to establish the simple synthesis method of Ag triangular nanoplates in order to elucidate their growth process. Ethanol solution of AgNO3 was photoirradiated without reduction agents except in the presence of PVP, poly(vinil-pyrrolidone). Electron microscope observations revealed that the shape of the product was Ag triangular nanoplates with sharp corners and a flat face. In situ XAFS and optical absorption measurements suggested that the Ag triangular nanoplates were photoinduced-converted from Ag spherical nanoparticles via Ag truncated triangular nanoplates.
