Abstract

Precious metals including Au, Pd, Pt, Ag and Pd and other metals such as Fe, Co, Mg and Ni as solid powder, dispersion in solution and deposition as thin films have attained wide interest in the last decades. They have induced intense research interest in nanotechnology due to their exciting properties including good conductivity, magnetic recording, localized surface plasmon resonance, antibacterial and catalytic effects [1, 2]. This chapter will introduce several main synthesis and characterization methods of metallic nanoparticles (NPs). The unique feature, key parameters and especially advantages and disadvantages of top-down (i.e. physical vapour deposition, bill milling and lithography) and bottom-up (e.g. chemical vapour deposition, sol–gel, hydrothermal/solvothermal, etc.) methodologies are discussed to trigger advances in nanotechnology advancement. Alternative green synthesis approaches are also included in this chapter. Furthermore, the basic characterization techniques for metallic NPs are pointed out for improving synthesis strategies, deciphering the topography evolution and comprehending the potential applications. Finally, emphasis has been placed on some main properties of metallic NPs for the potential of a wide range of applications.
