Silver nanowires have been synthesized by ethylene glycol reduction of silver nitrate with the assistance of polyvinyl pyrrolidone and sodium sulfide in a large scale. By adjusting the reaction temperature and Na₂S content, silver nanowires with lengths up to 3−4 μm can be achieved in high yield. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected areas electron diffraction (SAED), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) have been employed to characterize silver nanowires. Platinum nanotubes with length about 3 μm can be prepared using as-prepared silver nanowires as sacrificial templates. Platinum nanotubes were characterized by TEM, SAED, and HRTEM.
