In this paper, a new method for obtaining poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT/PSS)/gold nanocomposites is described. In a first step, PEDOT/PSS gold nanoparticle aqueous dispersions were obtained by simultaneous chemical synthesis of PEDOT and gold nanoparticles in the presence of PSS that acts as a stabilizer. In a second step, these PEDOT/PSS gold nanoparticle dispersions were used to formulate nanocomposites by mixing the initial dispersion with commercially available PEDOT/PSS aqueous dispersion. Nanocomposite thin films, obtained by casting these dispersions, present an intimate contact between the inorganic and organic components
