Abstract
We synthesized silver nanoplates using the solvothermal method and, for the first time, placed them as crystal seeds in a water-based growth solution, thereby successfully achieving the large-scale production of silver nanoplates. The synthesis method enabled independent control of the lateral size and vertical size of the silver nanoplates. More specifically, the lateral size could be adjusted within the range of 565 nm-1.682 μm, while the vertical size was achieved by introducing Cl- as a capping agent and the vertical size was thickened from 18.28 to 40.41 nm.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have supported important technological advances due to their unique properties and their applicability in various fields, such as biomedicine, catalysis, environment, energy, and electronics. This has triggered a tremendous increase in their demand. In turn, materials scientists have sought facile methods to produce nanomaterials of desired features, i.e., morphology, composition, colloidal stability, and surface chemistry, as these determine the targeted application. The advent of photoprocesses has enabled the easy, fast, scalable, and cost- and energy-effective production of metallic nanoparticles of controlled properties without the use of harmful reagents or sophisticated equipment. Herein, we overview the synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles via photochemical routes. We extensively discuss the effect of varying the experimental parameters, such as the pH, exposure time, and source of irradiation, the use or not of reductants and surfactants, reagents' nature and concentration, on the outcomes of these noble nanoparticles, namely, their size, shape, and colloidal stability. The hypothetical mechanisms that govern these green processes are discussed whenever available. Finally, we mention their applications and insights for future developments.
