摘要
We report on the fabrication of oriented anisotropic metal nanoparticle thin films made by Grazing Incidence Spraying (GIS) and on the anisotropic plasmonic properties of the resulting thin films. Gold nanorods of two different aspect ratios and silver nanowires were self-assembled as a uniaxially aligned monolayer with the GIS approach. In particular, we examine the influence of the nanowire/nanorod length and diameter on the degree of ordering determined by electron microscopy pictures. Furthermore, we show that the anisotropy of the optical properties (probed by polarized UV-visible-near infrared spectroscopy) strongly depend on the quality of alignment. The prepared monolayer thin films have an orientation order parameter of up to 0.83 for silver nanowires, which is reflected in an optical anisotropy of 0.57 in the UV-visible and 0.76 in the near infrared through the selective excitation of transverse and longitudinal surface plasmon resonance modes. The electronic transport in oriented silver nanowire monolayers is also shown to be highly directional, with the sheet resistance varying over almost an order of magnitude depending on the transport direction. Such anisotropic conductive plasmonic thin films may find applications in various fields like biochemical sensing, energy transport and harvesting or optoelectronic devices.
