Stepwise Construction of Conductive Au Colloid Multilayers from Solution
Source abstract
Abstract
Very highly conductive Au films on glass substrates have been prepared by stepwise, layer-by-layer immobilization of 11-nm diameter colloidal Au particles and a short organic cross-linker. Particle coverage, optical spectra, nanometer-scale topography, and electrical resistance have been measured as a function of the number of colloidal Au layers and reveal a rapid transition from insulating to metallic behavior.

29. A typical resistance measured for the most conducting samples was 80 Ω. The cross sectional area,A, was 0.9 cm (width) × 150 nm (the maximum possible film thickness) = 1.35 × 10-5cm2, and the sample length (L) was 2.1 cm. Using the formula for resistivity (ρ), ρ =RAL-1, a value of ρ = 5.1 × 10-4Ω cm is calculated. The corresponding value for pure bulk Au at 20 °C is ρ = 2.44 × 10-6Ω cm (Weast, R. C., Ed.CRC Handbook of Chemistry andPhysics, 69th ed.; CRC Press Inc. New York, 1988; p E-93).
