Gold Nanowire-network Structure Prepared from Metallic Gold Nanowires Deposited in Polycarbonate Template Membrane

摘要

A network structure of gold nanowires was prepared from a template synthesis method, in which gold metal nanowires were first deposited into a polycarbonate track-etched membrane with pore diameter of 100 or 220 nm via auto-catalytic deposition (i.e., electroless deposition), followed by thermal treatment to remove the polycarbonate template membrane.
