Abstract

In this paper, we report on the preparation and applications of nanofiber networks, particularly in the area of optelectronics. The major topics are (i) carbon nanotubes grown on carbon nanofibers for a field emitter, (ii) dye-sensitized ZnO nanowires grown on carbon nanofibers for a photoelectrochemical cell, (iii) nanofiber coatings for coloring, and (iv) nanofiber coatings on gold substrate for surface plasmon resonance. The results presented here reveal the potential use of nanofiber networks for various optoelectronic devices.
