ZnO nanoscale structures were grown on the silver wire, utilizing the electro-hydrothermal method, which deposited to further grow flake-form with pellicle and floccule status via employing certain characterizations. The analysis reveals that ZnO nanoscale flake-form were successfully coated on Ag wire. Besides, the antibacterial testing of sample with ZnO nanoscale flake-form integrated on the polished silver wire may support future detection platforms.

ZnO structures were electro-hydrothermally grown on copper and silver wires. To characterize the structures, multiple analyses including field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence measurements were performed on the ZnO structures on the wires. Results indicate that ZnO nanoflakes were densely deposited on the silver wire but poor ZnO structures were grown on the copper wire. Furthermore, OD 600 antibacterial tests revealed that ZnO flakes on the silver wire exhibited better antibacterial capability than the silver wire without ZnO nanoflakes. Because of possible integration with silver-related materials and flexibility of wire structures, ZnO nanoflake-coated silver wires have potentials for future antiseptic and biomedical applications.
