title: Ion- and electron-conducting platinum-polymer nanocomposite thin films.
abstract: Non-equilibrium plasmachemical deposition using platinum(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate precursor leads to the single-step formation of nanocomposite layers comprising an organic host matrix embedded with metal particles of size less than 5 nm. These multifunctional nanocomposite films are found to display both ionic and electronic conductivities.
