Abstract

Spectroellipsometric characterization of plasma-deposited Au/fluoropolymer nanocomposite films

“…2͑a͒. 21 The details of the particle size dependence on the deposition parameters is washed out due to the post-deposition annealing. Decreasing the argon flow has a similar effect since deposition at the same pressure requires a relative increase in the concentration of monomers.…”

Polymer Films with Embedded Metal Nanoparticles

“…• perfluoropropane C3FS with embedded Au, Mo, AI, Co, Ge or Cu nanoparticles [247,252,[256][257][258][259][260][261][262][263][264][265]]' • tetrafluoroethylene C2F4 with embedded Au or Mo nanoparticles [241,242,256,261,266,267] , • hexafluoroethane C2Fij with embedded Au or Mo nanoparticles [37,254,262]' • octafluoro-cyclobutane C4Fg with embedded Au [268] • tetrafluorocarbon CF4 with embedded Au, AI, Co or Mo nanoparticles [262,[269][270][271][272]]' • perfluorobutane C4F lO with embedded Mo nanoparticles [262]' • chlorotrifluoroethylene C2 CIF3 with embedded Au nanoparticles [271][272][273][274][275][276][277][278],…”

Formation and Distribution of Silver Nanoparticles in a Functional Plasma Polymer Matrix and Related Ag+ Release Properties

“…Two different types of Ag‐containing coatings can be envisaged: a pure Ag layer,12–14 or Ag nanoparticles embedded in a matrix. In 1988 Biederman15 already reviewed different plasma deposition techniques of metal/polymer composite films. Especially, the optical and electrical properties were of interest for the films made by various process combinations of evaporation, plasma polymerization and sputtering 15.…”
