Preparation of echinus-like SiO2@Ag structures with the aid of the HCP phase

Abstract

A novel echinus-like hybrid structure composed of a SiO2@Ag core–shell and many silver nanorods was synthesized. These silver rods have a rare HCP structure, while the initial silver nuclei have a FCC structure. The rapid and free growth of silver nuclei resulted in the appearance of the HCP phase.
