abstract |
The fabrication of structured polymer/nanoparticle composite films through a combination
of additive, subtractive and self-assembly methodologies is investigated. Consumer
grade inkjet printing hardware is employed to deposit cationic polyelectrolytes on
(i) hydrophilic and (ii) hydrophobised glass substrates. The hydrophobisation process
controls the spreading of the droplets and hence the lateral size of printed features.
The printed cationic polyelectrolyte regions are used as a template to direct the
self-assembly of negatively charged gold nanoparticles onto the surface. Micro-scale
features are created in the polyelectrolyte/nanoparticle films using AFM scratching
to selectively displace material. The effect of substrate wettability on film morphology
is discussed. |
