Abstract

Mimicking the designs from biological structures has been one of the most fascinating area of research due to their outstanding construction strategies to balance the performance and structure as per the demand of circumstances. In the present work, deposition of AgNPs on silicon substrate was carried out at room temperature by spraying nanoparticle (<100nm) at supersonic velocity through mimicking the sea shell structure of phylum Mollusca. The nano-layers of AgNPs were fabricated and characterized by assembling the Focused Ion Beam (FIB) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Morphological analysis revealed that nanoparticles were deposited in resemblance of architecture of natural shell showing randomly oriented particles on the surface.
