Transferred microelectrodes fabricated with V ₂O ₅ nanowires embedded polyelectrolyte multilayers

Micropatterns of V ₂O ₅ nanowires embedded polyelectrolyle multilayers were straightforwardly fabricated with conventional layer-by-layer assembly and subsequent transfer printing onto a flexible substrate. Networked microelectrodes of complexed polyelectrolytes/nanowires were also successfully obtained via multiple transfer printings over a large-scale area. Atomic force microscopic observation confirmed the robustness of the proposed method. Electrically good conducting behavior and structurally stable binding onto the flexible substrate of the transferred microelectrodes can serve as a novel method for the development of flexible electronics.
