Abstract
In order to provide a method for producing silver nanowires in which a local maximum of optical absorption in the plasmon absorption band can be shifted toward the short wavelength side without making the wire diameter smaller, a method for producing silver nanowires includes a step of heating a mixed liquid of a dispersion of silver nanowires and metal ions of a transition metal that is different from silver, and reducing the metal ions, thereby intermittently precipitating clumps of the transition metal on a surface of the silver nanowires. The thus produced silver nanowires have metal clumps intermittently along the length direction, and a local maximum of optical absorption in the plasmon absorption band of the silver nanowires has been shifted toward the short wavelength side.
