Abstract
Ultrahigh density arrays of conducting polypyrrole (PPy) nanorods are fabricated directly on the indium-tin oxide coated glass by an electropolymerization within a porous diblock copolymer template. The nanorods are shown to have conductivity much higher than thin PPy films, due to the high degree of chain orientation, even though the separation distance for two neighboring PPy main chains is as small as 0.37 nm. The ultrahigh density arrays of conducting polymer nanorods have potential applications as sensor materials, nanoactuators, and organic photovoltaic devices.
