We demonstrate an approach to fabricate a gold nanowire network that presents a macroscopic electrical conductivity based on a lipid nanotube (LNT) template with attached gold nanoparticles. The poor electrical conductivity that we have previously faced was overcome by centrifugation and resuspension of gold nanoparticle solution for removing stabilizing agents, which increased the density of gold nanoparticles on the LNTs. An additional electroless metal plating further enhanced their contacts at nanoscale. Thanks to these procedures, the sheet resistance was improved by 11 orders of magnitude. As a proof of principle, transparent conductive films were fabricated with these gold nanowires, which exhibited sheet resistance of maximum 70 Ω/□ and transmittance of 50–75% in visible light.

脂质纳米管作为导电金纳米结构网络的有机模板。

我们展示了一种制造金纳米线网络的方法，该网络基于具有附着的金纳米颗粒的脂质纳米管（LNT）模板呈现了宏观导电性。我们先前面临的不良电导率可通过离心和重悬金纳米颗粒溶液以去除稳定剂来克服，这可以增加金纳米颗粒在LNT上的密度。额外的化学镀金属进一步增强了它们在纳米级的接触。由于这些程序，薄层电阻提高了11个数量级。作为原理证明，用这些金纳米线制造了透明导电膜，其在最大可见光下的薄层电阻为70Ω/□，透射率为50-75％。
