Popis: Abstract Polymer-derived ceramics derived from pre-ceramic polymers (PCPs), have access to several form factors and are highly tunable systems. Tunability can be further expanded with the incorporation of functional nanoparticle fillers throughout the matrix for advanced nanocomposite polymer-derived ceramic development. However, capping ligands used in nanoparticle syntheses mix unfavorably with PCPs, giving aggregated filler material and diminished properties. To control dispersion, secondary nanoparticle processing is performed by adhering PCP-miscible caps to the surface after synthesis. This often sacrifices size control established for small nanoparticles (
