Abstract
null null We introduce a bioinspired approach for synthesizing noble metal nanostructures on electrospun polymer nanofibers. Two different polymer nanofibers, poly (vinyl alcohol) and poly (ɛ-caprolactone), were prepared by electrospinning followed by coatings with polydopamine (pD) through the oxidative polymerization of dopamines. The pD coating generates a local reductive environment on the surface of the polymer nanofibers. Gold and silver...
