摘要:
Process for the synthesis of nanoparticles comprising oxidation sensitive metals, in particular copper comprising the following steps: Preparation and nucleation of citrate-capped Metal-hydroxide nanoparticles, reduction of the intermediate citrate-capped Metal-hydroxide nanoparticles to Metal 0 by reduction via NaBH 4 Cu 0 nanoparticles with narrow size distribution are obtained by NaBH 4 Li-induced reduction of CUCI 2 2H 2 O in diethylene glycol. The course of the reaction essentially involves an intermediate formation of Cu(OH) 2 nanoparticles as well as the presence of citrate to control the nucleation of almost monodisperse and non-agglomerated Cu 0 nanoparticles. The citrate-capped Cu 0 nanoparticles of the invention are surprisingly stable against air oxidation. Via simple solvent evaporation, porous Cu 0 thin-films are prepared on glass substrates that exhibit bulk-like sheet resistances of 0.23 - 0.42 Ω ϛ after vacuum sintering at 250 °C (bulk-Cu sheet under similar conditions with: 0.3 Ω ϛ ). With these features the as-prepared, citrate-capped Cu 0 nanoparticles become highly relevant to electronic devices in particular thin-film electronics, thin-film sensors and high-power batteries.
