Recycling silver nanoparticle debris from laser ablation of silver nanowire in liquid media toward minimum material waste

Abstract As silver nanowires (Ag NWs) are usually manufactured by chemical synthesis, a patterning process is needed to use them as functional devices. Pulsed laser ablation is a promising Ag NW patterning process because it is a simple and inexpensive procedure. However, this process has a disadvan...
