Abstract : Controlling the shape of a metal nanostructure allows to control its properties, yet the processes that induce solution-phase anisotropic growth of metal nanostructures are still a mystery. Though the iodide ion is well-known as a shape-directing agent, the study emphasizes the role of alkylamine in the shape-shifting of 1D Cu nanowires to 2D Cu nanoplates in conjunction with the iodide source. The role of iodide and Cu precursor sources for the production of 2D microplates is also highlighted in this study.
