Abstract:
A method to fabricate metal nanostructures by transfer printing, applicable to textured surfaces, is described. The key is the use of self-assembled polystyrene-block-poly-2-vinylpyridine thin films as binding layers. The plasmonic properties of the obtained metal (Ag) nanostructures showed the potential of this method in the design of novel devices.
