Annotation	Copper has a strong bactericidal eﬀect against multi-drug resistant pathogens and polyethers are known for their resistance to biofilm formation. Herein, we combined Cu nanoparticles (NPs) and a polyether plasma polymer in the form of nanocomposite thin films and studied whether both eﬀects can be coupled. Cu NPs were produced by magnetron sputtering via the aggregation in a cool buﬀer gas whereas polyether layers were synthesized by Plasma-Assisted Vapor Phase Deposition with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) used as a precursor.
