Abstract:
A composite material comprising a laminate comprising a plurality of polysilylenemethylene layers in which nanoparticles of a metal selected from the group consisting of gold, platinum, palladium, copper and silver are dispersed, wherein each polysilylenemethylene layer in the plurality is prepared by forming and heating a layer of disilacyclobutane and a layer of nanoparticles on the layer of disilacyclobutane, thereby forming a layer of polysilylenemethylene containing nanoparticles, followed by forming and heating a layer of disilacyclobutane and a layer of nanoparticles onto the previous layer of polysilylenemethylene containing nanoparticles, thereby forming another layer of polysilylenemethylene containing nanoparticles.
