Polymer-Based Nanowires and Nanotubes: nanosources, wave-guiding
Résumé
One-dimensional polymer-based nano-structures such as nanowires (NWs) and nanotubes (NTs) are nowadays intensively investigated since they promote enhanced properties, as well as new paradigms for electronic, optical, optoelectronic, and photonic devices. Here, we propose a review of recent developments achieved in our group with collaborations on polymer based nanowires and nanotubes. Various polymer based NWs and NTs were synthesized by template strategies with advanced architectures designed for improving their functionality (waveguiding, color control of photoluminescence, photoconductivity and mechanical reinforcement,…). Both conjugated polymers (CPs) and photoresists containing photo-active species (transition metal compound clusters, single-walled-carbon nanotubes SWCNTs) were involved. The focus is made on the emerging strategies for understanding and controlling the behavior of charges, excitons and photons, as well as light propagation in sub-wavelength nanostructures.
