Abstract
The elastomeric electrode includes: a stretchable substrate 10 having wrinkles formed on one surface thereof, the peaks C and valleys T of the wrinkles being repeated; a wrinkled metal nanoparticle layer 20 including metal nanoparticles 21 and formed by deposition of the metal nanoparticles along the wrinkles of the substrate 10; and a wrinkled monomolecular layer 30 including a monomolecular material having one or more amine groups (—NH2) and formed by deposition of the monomolecular material onto the metal nanoparticle layer 20. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the elastomeric electrode.
Claims9
An elastomeric electrode comprising:
- a stretchable substrate having wrinkles formed on one surface thereof, the peaks and valleys of the wrinkles being repeated;
- a wrinkled metal nanoparticle layer comprising metal nanoparticles and formed by deposition of the metal nanoparticles along the wrinkles of the substrate;
- and a wrinkled monomolecular layer comprising a monomolecular material having one or more amine groups (—NH2) and formed by deposition of the monomolecular material onto the metal nanoparticle layer.
A method for preparing an elastomeric electrode, comprising (a) dipping a stretchable substrate into a first dispersion comprising metal nanoparticles dispersed in a first organic solvent to swell the substrate and form a metal nanoparticle layer on the swollen substrate and (b) dipping the swollen substrate formed with the metal nanoparticle layer into a second dispersion comprising a monomolecular material having one or more amine groups (—NH2) dispersed in a second organic solvent to form a monomolecular layer on the metal nanoparticle layer and contract the substrate, leaving wrinkles on the surface of a bilayer consisting of the metal nanoparticle layer and the monomolecular layer deposited onto the metal nanoparticle layer.
