Abstract
Nickel nanowires were synthesized via electroless deposition in an organic solvent (ethylene glycol) under a magnetic field. Deposition behavior of nickel particles and wires were electrochemically investigated at various concentrations of NaOH by an in-situ mixed potential measurement and voltammetry combined with quartz crystal microbalance. Based on the electrochemical investigation, a formation mechanism of nickel wires is proposed. According to the mechanism, nickel wires 100–370 nm in diameter with several dozen μm of length were successfully prepared by controlling the reduction rate by varying a concentration of sodium hydroxide, trisodium citrate, and a nucleating agent, chloroplatinic acid.
