Facile Fabrication of Ultrafine Copper Nanoparticles in Organic Solvent

<p>Abstract</p> <p>A facile chemical reduction method has been developed to fabricate ultrafine copper nanoparticles whose sizes can be controlled down to ca. 1 nm by using poly(<it>N</it>-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) as the stabilizer and sodium borohyrdride as the reducing...
