Abstract

A physical approach has been developed to in situ coat metal nanoparticles with a nanolayer of organic hydrocarbon film. Copper nanoparticles produced by the flow-levitation method were in situ coated with hydrocarbon films via a dielectric barrier discharge. The hydrocarbon-coated Cu nanoparticles have been analyzed by transmission electron microscopy and infrared absorption to determine the size distribution and dispersion of nanoparticles as well as the chemical components and thickness of the coatings.
