Abstract:
1. A method of producing stretchable conductive nanofibers, the method comprising: forming stretchable nanofibers; preparing a metal precursor solution by dissolving metal precursors in a solvent that may swell the stretchable nanofibers; immersing the stretchable nanofibers in the metal precursors solution to swell the stretchable nanofibers, to penetrate and disperse the metal precursors inside the stretchable nanofibers; removing the stretchable nanofibers from the solution of metal precursors; drying the stretchable nanofibers removed from the solution of metal precursorss; and reducing the metal precursors penetrated inside the stretchable nanofibers to metal nanoparticles, wherein the stretchable conductive nanofiber comprises the stretchable nanofiber and a percolation network of conductive nanoparticles formed inside the stretchable nanofibers.
