dc.description.abstract Among the functional nanocomposites, our group has focused on highly filled particulate metal-dielectric nanocomposites films due to their unique functional properties with hosts of applications. To explore collective interactions between the particles, we control the particle separation on the nanoscale by employing vapor phase deposition, which is a scalable approach permitting, inter alia, excellent control of the filling factor. For deposition of functional polymer thin films, we have recently used initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) to avoid decomposition of the functional groups [1]. Examples include highly stable electrets for electret microphones and magnetoelectric sensors [2], 3D superhydrophobic coatings [3], nanoscale gradient copolymers, and strain-invariant conductors for soft robotics [4]. For the fabrication of the nanocomposites, the nanoparticles can form during gas phase co-deposition via self-organization or by means of high-rate gas aggregation cluster sources, which provide independent control of filling factor and size as well as in situ monitoring and control of the composition of alloy nanoparticles. Recent examples of nanocomposites range from plasmonic meta-materials through photoswitchable [5] molecular plasmonic systems to memristors and memsensors for neuromorphic electronics [6]. We also explored nanoscale synergetic effects of plasmonics and photocatalysis [7], e.g. for photoinduced enhanced Raman spectroscopy (PIERS) [8]. In cooperation with the group of Oleg Lupan, we have also used alloy nanoparticles with tailored composition to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity of chemical sensors made up of micro and nanostructured wide-bandgap semiconductors [9]. Cross-sensitivity against moisture could be successfully eliminated with fluoropolymer coatings deposited by iCVD [10]. In addition to particulate nanocomposites, we are also concerned with multilayer nanocomposites. Here, emphasis is put on magnetoelectric sensors consisting of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric components on a vibrating beam. We also use electrets for readout and for obtaining a well-defined nonlinear restoring force [11]. en_US
