Figure 10.6 Procedure for polymer nanowire fabrication. An aqueous PEDOTtPSS solution was spin-coated on a substrate patterned with a 1.3 ym period grating, then coated with a thin Si02 layer and a PDMS homopolymer brush. A PS-PDMS block-copolymer thin film was then spin-coated and solvent-annealed. The self-assembled block-copolymer patterns were transferred into the underlying PEDOT-.PSS film through a series of reactive ion etching steps employing CF4 and O2 plasmas.
