Selective electrodeposition and etching on polymer brush template prepared by patterned monolayer surface initiated polymerization
Electrodeposition of polypyrrole (PPy) and etching resistance can be achieved on the same area of a single binary pattern of hydrophilic polymer brush and hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer. In this way, the prepared conducting polymer and the metal microstructures can have the same pattern.
