Nanostructured polymer metal composites demonstrate great perspective for flexible electronic and plasmonic applications [1]. Therefore, the growth kinetics and optical properties for silver deposition on co- and homopolymers were characterized by GISAXS, specular reflectance spectroscopy (UVVis), AFM and resistivity measurements. As substrates, solvent annealed PS-b-PMMA diblock copolymers of different molecular weights and their corresponding homopolymers were used. Thus, the influence of the block length and the diblock domains could be investigated. The study reveals the selective wetting of silver on one of the blocks from the copolymer thin films. The silver layers show a clear plasmon resonance. GISAXS measurements indicate a difference in the embedding of silver clusters depending on the polymer substrate. [1] S. V. Roth et al., ACS Appl.
