Advanced morphological control over Cu nanowires through a design of experiments approach.

ABSTRACT: Copper nanowires (CuNWs), featuring anisotropic highly conductive crystalline facets, represent an ideal nanostructure to fabricate on-demand materials as transparent electrodes and efficient electrocatalysts. The development of reliable and robust CuNWs requires achieving a full control over their synthesis and morphology growth, a challenge that continues to puzzle materials scientists. In this study, we systematically investigated the correlation between the critical synthetic parameters and the structural properties of nanowires using a design of experiments (DOE) approach. Multiparametric variation of experimental reaction conditions combined with orthogonal technical analysis allowed us to develop a sound predictive model that provides guidelines for designing CuNWs with controlled m
