Hi all. I have a doubt about silver nanowires. Many articles suggest the characterization of silver nanowires is done after dispersing in ethanol. I do not know how to take XRD of silver nanowires.
The final Ag nanowire product must be dispersed in ethanol. Once done, you should drop cast your Ag nanowire solution over a glass slide or Si wafer over a hot plate at 60 C to evaporate ethanol.. Make a thick layer of sample and then perform XRD.
