High magnetic field effect on the growth of 3-dimensional silver dendrites
A liquid/solid redox reaction between silver ion and copper metal was investigated under high magnetic field (maximum field strength: 15 T). 3-Dimensional silver dendrites produced via the reaction were affected drastically by the magnetic field. Dense and large quantity dendrites were obtained under the magnetic field. Magnetic force will determine the shape and quantity of the silver dendrites.
