| Self-assembling highly conductive plastic nanofibers Posted: 22 Apr 2012 10:48 AM PDT Researchers have succeeded in making highly conductive plastic fibers that are only several nanometers thick. These nanowires "self-assemble" when triggered by a flash of light. Inexpensive and easy to handle, unlike carbon nanotubes, they combine the advantages of the two materials currently used to conduct electric current: metals and plastic organic polymers. In fact, their remarkable electrical properties are similar to those of metals. In addition, they are light and flexible like plastics, which opens up the possibility of meeting one of the most important challenges of 21st century electronics: miniaturizing components down to the nanometric scale. |
