Growing Silver Nanowires

I would like to design a poster which walks through the steps of constructing nanowires. This is a relatively simple process which is used to deposit microscopic droplets of silver onto a ferromagnetic material. The silver exists in a solution placed on the ferromagnetic material which is exposed to electromagnetic radiation and the silver starts to condense. As the silver falls onto the material it is attracted to areas on the material where the magnetic forces change and oppose each other. Since the droplets are attracted to areas of changing magnetic poles they form lines which we call nanowires.
