Arrays of polymer nanostructures exhibit an interesting behavior that makes them promising candidates for use in organic photonics, electronics, piezoelectric, mechanical, and biomedical devices. We demonstrate the use of wetting nanoporous alumina template (including well-defined pore arrays) with polymer solutions or molten polymers to produce arrays of isolated amorphous polymer, piezoelectric polymer, self-assembled block copolymer, π-conjugated polymer, and photo- or thermal-curable polymers supported onto various substrates, as well as free standing thin films. The systems were studied using grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction, scattering, and nanoscale imaging techniques that allow the phase-separation transition, crystallinity, and chain orientation information. |
