The Ag:Pt molar ratio is varied from 9:1 to 1:9 for synthesizing Pt shell layer of different thickness. An apparent shift of Ag surface plasmon band from 405 nm to 230 nm and broadening of one with decrease of Ag:Pt ratio was observed. The TEM images and SAED pattern of Pt@Ag nanoparticles has been obtained. The UV-Vis and TEM data confirms a formation of Ag/Pt core-shell nanoparticles. %K Nanoparticles synthesis %K Nanoparticles study %K Controlled properties %K Producing processes %K Complex structure %U http://nap.sumdu.edu.ua/index.php/nap/nap2012/paper/view/730
