Facile synthesis of monodispersed silver nanoparticles on graphene oxide sheets with enhanced antibacterial activity

Graphene oxide-Ag nanoparticle (GO-Ag) composites were synthesized through a facile two-phase 10 (toluene-water) process. Transmission Electron Microscope and X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the Ag nanoparticles anchored on GO sheets were spherical in shape and highly monodispersed with uni...
