Zusammenfassung:A room temperature technique was developed to produce continuous metal nanowires embedded in random nanoporous ceramic skeletons. The synthesis involves preparation of uniform, nanoporous ceramic preforms and subsequent electrochemical metal infiltration at room temperature, so to avoid material incompatibilities frequently encountered in traditional high-temperature liquid metal infiltration. Structure and preliminary evaluations of mechanical and electronic properties of copper/alumina nanocomposites are reported.
