Noble metal nanoparticles on silicon wafers can form
microstructures not only by electroless deposition of
themselves but also by their catalytic activity for etching of
silicon and initiationof electrolessmetal fabricate
various noble metal nanoparticles on silicon by electroless
displacement deposition and apply them to metal-assisted
hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching of silicon autocatalytic electroless
deposition of metal on silicon, solar-hydrogen production using
photoelectrochemical cells, and noble metal recovery from
waste electrical and electronic equipment. In this presentation,
noble metal nanoparticles and nanostructures formed on silicon
surfaces by these processes are described.
