Electroless deposition is a simple and versatile method for metal deposition over a
surface. Silicon is a chemical element with symbol Si and atomic number 14. A
semiconductor is a substance, usually a solid chemical element or compound that can
conduct electricity under some conditions but not others, making it a good medium
for the control of electrical. This research are to study the deposition of silver
nanoparticle on the silicon (Si) substrate at different deposition time and to further
investigate the morphology, structure and conductivity. The first is the cleaning
process on silicon substrate and second step is the deposition of silver on silicon with
different deposition time. the characterizations, in which the sample will be tested with
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), X-
Ray Diffractometer(XRD), Fourier Transform Infra-Red(FTIR), and Four Point Probe.
Then the data obtained will be analyse.
