Zusammenfassung:A method of manufacturing a metal fabric or membrane, the method comprises providing an ink comprising a plurality of semiconductor particles disposed in a first solvent. The method comprises applying the ink to a fabric or membrane to obtain a fabric or membrane comprising a plurality of semiconductor particles. Finally, the method comprises contacting the fabric or membrane comprising the plurality of semiconductor particles with a deposition solution comprising a second solvent, an autocatalytic agent, and metal cations to thereby cause a reaction to occur such that the metal cations are reduced and at least partially displace the semiconductor particles, to thereby provide a metal fabric or membrane.
