Free-standing nanorod arrays of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) were fabricated on indium tin oxide/glass substrates using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates. The AAO templates were treated with a low molecular weight polydimethylsiloxane mold-release agent to reduce their surface energy of the template and interactions with the P3HT. Using a thermal nanoimprinting process, the templates were easily removed, generating nanorods on the surfaces of P3HT thin films. These unique structures were investigated for application in organic photovoltaic devices.
采用阳极氧化铝（AAO）模板在铟锡氧化物/玻璃基底上制备了聚（3-己基噻吩）（P3HT）独立纳米棒阵列。为了降低模板的表面能和与 P3HT 的相互作用，用低分子量聚二甲基硅氧烷脱模剂对 AAO 模板进行了处理。采用热压印工艺，模板很容易被去除，在 P3HT 薄膜表面生成纳米棒。这些独特的结构被应用于有机光伏器件进行了研究。
