Abstract. The properties and applications of perfluoropolymer nanocomposite thin films deposited from the gas phase are summarized, and the development trends in this field are discussed in this review. The perfluoropolymer matrix protects metal nanoparticles from corrosion, imparts superhydrophobic properties to surfaces, extends the lifetime of medical implants, and improves the performance of functional layers in organic light-emitting diodes, among other applications. Dyes and metal nanoparticles incorporated into the PTFE matrix demonstrate unique properties, making these materials promising for optical and biomedical applications.

Keywords: perfluoropolymer, polytetrafluoroethylene, thin film, matrix, nanocomposite, dye.
