Surface modification and shape adjustment of polymer semiconductor nanowires

Ordered Organic Nanostructures Fabricated from Anodic Alumina Oxide Templates for Organic Bulk‐Heterojunction Photovoltaics

“…Two fundamental strategies (Figure ) can be applied to produce 1D organic nanostructures: self‐assembly of precursor polymers in solution and template‐based fabrication . The self‐assembly of precursor polymers in solution is that the polymer spontaneously form anisotropic aggregates or oriented structures under suitable conditions through noncovalent forces such as π–π stacking, dipole–dipole, hydrophobic, Van der Waals, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, and ion–dipole interactions of the building blocks.…”

Stability of core–shell nanowires in selected model solutions

“…Nanowires and nanotubes as one-dimensional inorganic nanomaterials are widely used to form arrays and networks for building integrated nanodevices [1]. Because of their different shapes, nanowires and nanotubes exhibit various optical, electronic or light polarization properties [2].…”

“…These kinds of particles can be coated with various hydrophilic polymers, noble metals, metal oxides and organic compounds not only to protect the core of nanowires but also to explore organic surface modifications. For example, if organic molecules are used to modify the surface, the properties of nanomaterials can be changed and well controlled because of the presence of different functional groups in organic molecules [1]. * Corresponding author.…”

Degradation of Rhodococcus erythropolis SY095 modified with functional magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles

“…Under many circumstances, surface modification of nanomaterials is needed to endow them with unique or better capabilities. The surface modification of inorganic one-dimensional nanomaterials by organic molecules can be easily done, decorating on the surface of organic semiconductor one-dimensional nanomaterials by organic molecules [ 45 ]. The surface modification of small organic molecules and high polymer can inhibit the aggregation of Fe 3 O 4 and increase its surface effect.…”
