description <p>Abstract</p> <p>We present a very simple and effective way for the synthesis of tunable coloured silver sols having different morphologies. The procedure is based on the seed-mediated growth approach where methyl cellulose (MC) has been used as soft-template in the growth solution. Nanostructures of varying morphologies as well as colour of the silver sols are controlled by altering the concentration of citrate in the growth solution. Similar to the polymers in the solution, citrate ions also dynamically adsorbed on the growing silver nanoparticles and promote one (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) growth of nanoparticles. Silver nanostructures are characterized using UV&#8211;vis and HR-TEM spectroscopic study. Simulation of the UV&#8211;vis extinction spectra of our synthesized silver nanostructures has been carried out using discrete dipole approximation (DDA) method.</p>
