Abstract

A composite material with enhanced electrical conductivity. The composite material includes two distinct phases. The first distinct phase is an excluded volume phase that includes an electrical insulator. The second distinct phase, a conductor phase, is a composite including an electrically insulating matrix and an embedded conductor phase that has sufficient concentration to exceed a percolation threshold within the conductor phase.
