Nano and micro structural characterization of polymer-Au nanorod hybrid electronic ink by SANS and NR
Anisotropic metal nanoparticles such as gold nanorods (AuNR) are now accessible in a variety of shapes, sizes and surface properties using wet-based chemical synthesis. Conductive polymers with electrical conductivity and good mechanical property have recently been used as the ligands to fabricate polymer-Au hybrid systems and to achieve unprecedented electrical properties in a range of applications.[1-3] Such objects are used in “electronic inks” to combine high electrical conductivity and mechanical elasticity and can be printed to prepare flexible conductive electrodes, as illustrated in Figure 1. While the process engineering of electronic ink drying is well-established, little is known about the nano and microscopic structure formation in drying hybrid nanoparticle films and its effect on the properties (conductivity, mechanical flexibility, etc.) of the final coating. We plan to investigate the hybrid material with SANS and NR.
