This paper delves into the application of the short-wave infrared (SWIR) region, with a focus on the synthesis and optical characteristics of silver sulfide (Ag₂S) nanostructures. SWIR offers advantages such as reduced damage to biological tissues and enhanced optical transparency, making it valuable across various domains. The study introduces three distinct synthesis methods, each showcasing the ability to obtain nanostructures with improved optical properties. These research findings open up the possibility of providing tailored solutions in detection, imaging, and other applications by controlling the size and ligands of Ag2S nanoparticles. This paper provides new insights into the utilization of Ag₂S in the SWIR region, which is expected to foster advancements in future technologies.
