“…Usually, both solvent and a reducing agent would act as reductant while the surfactant molecules would influence the interaction and reaction of the metallic element in the system [65][66][67]. For Ag nanowires, EG is usually used as a solvent in the solvo-or hydrothermal synthesis, as it enhances the reproducibility and scalability of the end product (Ag nanowires suspension) [68].…”

The recent interest to nanotechnology aims not only at device miniaturisation, but also at understanding the effects of quantised structure in materials of reduced dimensions, which exhibit different properties from their bulk counterparts. In particular, quantised metal nanowires made of silver, gold or copper have attracted much attention owing to their unique intrinsic and extrinsic length-dependent mechanical properties. Here we review the current state of art and developments in these nanowires from synthesis to mechanical properties, which make them leading contenders for next-generation nanoelectromechanical systems. We also present theories of interatomic interaction in metallic nanowires, as well as challenges in their synthesis and simulation.
