The fabrication of nano metal structures through evanescent wave combined with vibration

Abstract

In recent years, nano metal structures have been in the center of considerable attention due to their unique optical phenomenon and potential applications in the field of medical and optics. However, some disadvantages, including low efficiency, high cost and inconvenience, are still exist. To solve these problems, a method of nano structures fabrication was proposed, which utilizes evanescent wave to provide energy to make nanoparticles self-assembled into the structures. By changing the parameters which depend on evanescent wave and vibration in experiments, the nano metal particles can form into different structures, and the fabricated processes are less than the other method. With these characteristics, this method largely simplifies the fabricating process of nano metal structures and improve the processing efficiency.
