    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Nanotechnology
    • Electronics Manufacturing

    Background:

    • Noble metals like silver (Ag) and platinum (Pt) are crucial but expensive raw materials in electronic device manufacturing.
    • High material costs for noble metals significantly increase the overall manufacturing expenses.
    • Copper (Cu) presents a cost-effective alternative due to similar properties, but suffers from poor oxidation resistance.

    • To investigate the development of low-cost, high-performance materials for electronic devices.
    • To address the oxidation limitations of copper as a replacement for noble metals.
    • To create novel core-shell nanoparticles for improved conductivity and reduced manufacturing costs.

    Main Methods:

    • Synthesis of copper-silver (Cu@Ag) core-shell nanoparticles.
    • Characterization of the nanoparticles' physical and chemical properties.
    • Evaluation of the electro-conductivity of the synthesized Cu@Ag nanoparticles.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully fabricated Cu@Ag core-shell nanoparticles.
    • Achieved electro-conductivity comparable to pure silver (Ag).
    • Demonstrated a viable low-cost alternative to expensive noble metals.

    Conclusions:

    • Cu@Ag core-shell nanoparticles offer a promising solution for reducing raw material costs in electronic device manufacturing.
    • These nanoparticles maintain high electro-conductivity while mitigating the oxidation issues of pure copper.
    • The development paves the way for more affordable and reliable electronic components.
