We present a spray deposition process for fabrication of nanostructured silver layers which is advantageous in comparison to other methods. Silver nitrate solution was used as precursor for the nanostructures, which is beneficial, because of its solubility and the low toxicity. We investigated the growth of deposited silver nitrate nanoparticles as well as the influence of an annealing process, by optical and atomic force microscopy and UV-VIS spectroscopy. In addition, in situ GISAXS and GIWAXS were used to identify morphological and chemical changes during the spraying/heating process: The nanoparticle growth was investigated as a function of the spray duration. During the heat-induced transformation, the nanoparticles show coalescence, resulting in a larger percentage of surface coverage in comparison to the as deposited films. Additionally, the temperature dependent conversion from silver nitrate to silver is shown.
