Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to assess fabrication of a nanoporous film from a polystyrene-poly(methyl methacrylate) diblock copolymer (PS-b-PMMA) and also to explore the surface functional groups on the resulting nanopores. Polymer films containing vertically aligned cylindrical nanoscale pores (ca. 10 nm in pore radius, 20-30 nm in film thickness) were prepared on gold substrates by removing the cylindrical PMMA domains from PS-b-PMMA films via UV irradiation and subsequent acetic acid… CONTINUE READING
