Structural and electrical properties of gold nanowires/P(VDF-TrFE) nanocomposites [PDF]
High aspect ratio gold nanowires were uniformly dispersed into a poly(vinylidene difluoride–trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] matrix. The nanowires were synthesized by electrodeposition using nanoporous anodic alumina oxide templates.
