Claim:
1. A method for preparing nanostructured single crystal silver comprising following steps: (1) reduction treatment of monolithic activated carbon: dipping the monolithic activated carbon into a 5-20 wt % of ammonia solution or absolute ethanol, and after 10 minutes to 2 hours, taking the monolithic activated carbon out and oven-drying it at 60-120° C., to obtain pre-treated active carbon; (2) nanostructured single crystal silver growing on the monolithic activated carbon: preparing a silver-ammonia solution and dipping the pre-treated active carbon into said silver-ammonia solution, after a period of time at room temperature, nanostructured single crystal silver with different morphologies grow on a surface of the pre-treated active carbon to get nanostructured single crystal silver.
