Abstract
Provided herein are composite materials and methods of making composite materials including carbon nanoscale fiber networks. The composite materials may include a stretched and doped carbon nanoscale fiber network and a capping layer. The methods of making the composite materials may include stretching a carbon nanoscale fiber network, contacting the nanoscale fiber network with a dopant, and disposing a capping layer on a surface of the carbon nanoscale fiber network.

A composite material comprising:
- a carbon nanoscale fiber network comprising a plurality of substantially aligned carbon nanoscale fibers;
- a dopant adsorbed to one or more surfaces of the carbon nanoscale fiber network, dispersed within the carbon nanoscale fiber network, or a combination thereof;
- and
- a capping layer disposed on at least one surface of the carbon nanoscale fiber network;
- wherein the dopant is present in the composite material in an amount of about 1% to about 25% by weight, based on the combined weight of the dopant and the plurality of substantially aligned carbon nanoscale fibers, and the composite material has an electrical conductivity of about 5,000 S/cm to about 50,000 S/cm.
