We report a simple method to control the end shape of silver nanowires by adding pure water in the conventional polyol synthesis. The use of 0.2-0.4% (v/v) water in ethylene glycol as a solvent provides pencil-like silver nanowires with sharp ends in a high yield. We have demonstrated remote excitation of SHG on the sharp nanowires, promising a point light source for super resolution microscopy.
