17. A method comprising:
-
providing at least one metal nanowire comprising at least one surface, providing at least one surface modifier comprising at least one linkage component, at least one nanowire binding moiety bonded to the at least one linkage component, and at least one surface modifying moiety also bonded to the at least one linkage component, wherein the at least one nanowire binding moiety is bonded to the at least one surface; and combining the at least one metal nanowire and the at least one surface modifier, wherein, after combining the at least one nanowire and the at least one surface modifier, the at least one surface modifier is disposed on the at least one surface of the at least metal nanowire.
