The deposition of specific materials into ordered pores arranged in a regular lattice allows the fabrication of ordered fiber arrays. Polymer micro- and nanofibers using macroporous silicon and nanoporous alumina templates were fabricated employing a vacuum infiltration method for Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) structures or a melt-assisted template wetting into the pores for Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) structures. We have studied how the aspect ratio of the micro- and nanopores and the kind of polymer influence the structures fabrication.Peer Reviewe
