ABSTRACT:
A method of producing a nanoparticle, the method comprising: a reducing step of adding an reverse micelle solution (II) obtained by mixing a water-insoluble organic solvent containing a surfactant with an aqueous metal salt solution to an reverse micelle solution (I) obtained by mixing a water-insoluble organic solvent containing a surfactant with an aqueous reducing agent solution, to carry out a reducing reaction; and a maturing step of raising the temperature of the reduced mixture to mature the reduced mixture is provided. A method of producing a plural type alloy nanoparticle, the method comprising producing a nanoparticle made of a plural type alloy through a reducing step of mixing one or more reverse micelle solutions (I) containing a metal salt with an reverse micelle solution (II) containing a reducing agent to carry out reducing treatment and a maturing step of carrying out maturing treatment is also provided.
