Abstract

A review on chemical and physical preparation of platinum nanoparticles and some applications with these nanoparticles is presented. Application perspectives such fields as nano-catalysts, electrical conductivity, optics and nonlinear optics are demonstrated. Different parameters and condition of various fabrication technologies are considered and realized specific physical properties of platinum nanoparticles are discussed.
