    Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanowires have drawn great attention recently because of their unique properties that can be applied to optoelectronic devices such as conjugated polymer solar cells and organic field-effect transistors. There is still an urgent need, however, to study the fabrication and characterization of P3HT nanowires with controllable morphologies and molecular orientations. In this work, feasible routes are presented to fabricate P3HT nanowires using the solution wetting template method and the solvent-annealing-induced nanowetting in template (SAINT) method. The morphologies and chemical compositions of the P3HT nanowires prepared using these two methods are confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Raman spectroscopy. From the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and wide-angle X-ray scattering results, it is concluded that the degrees of the crystallinity and the orientation preferences of interchain stackings along the pore axis for the P3HT nanowires prepared by the SAINT method are higher than those prepared by the solution wetting template method.

    Although many fabrication methods of conjugated polymer nanostructures have been developed, the effects of confinement on the morphologies, chain conformations, and optical properties of conjugated polymers are still not well understood. In this work, poly(9,9-di-n-octylfluorene-alt-benzothiadiazole) (F8BT), a light-emitting conjugated polymer, is used to fabricate nanotubes by a solution wetting method using anodic aluminum oxide templates. The property changes under the nanoscale confinement have been investigated. The morphologies of F8BT nanostructures are characterized by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and laser scanning confocal microscope. The data show the hollow morphologies and no or low crystallinity of the nanostructures. The optical properties are also measured using UV-vis absorption, photoluminescence, and confocal Raman spectroscopy. The spectroscopy data indicate that F8BT polymer chains have less intermolecular interactions and coplanarity under the confinement effect.

    In recent years, poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanowires have attracted great interest because of their unique physical and electronic properties. The annealing effects on the properties and morphologies of P3HT nanowires, however, are still not fully understood. In this work, the effects of thermal annealing and solvent annealing on the morphologies and crystallinities of P3HT nanowires prepared by the whisker method are studied. P3HT is first dissolved in heated p-xylene, followed by a cooling process to room temperature, and P3HT nanowires are formed by self-assembly. The crystallinities of the P3HT nanowires are observed to increase by both thermal annealing and solvent annealing, as confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. The device performances of organic field-effect transistors based on the annealed nanowires are also examined. After annealing, an enhancement of the charge mobility by one order is observed.

    We recently reported the discovery of soliton-like electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) waves from pure conjugated polymer films and gold-nanoparticles-doped polymer films. In addition to a more detailed study of these polymer systems by changing the film thickness and the distribution of local leaks, we also apply the ECL wave phenomenon to polymer blends of conjugated and nonconjugated polymers. Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-benzothiadiazole) (F8BT) is used as the active material that is oxidized and produces ECL with the presence of a co-reactant, tri-n-propylamine (TPA). Several factors such as film thickness, artificial leaks, and solubility of doped polymers are examined for their effects on the ECL behavior. When polystyrene (PS), less soluble in the electrolyte, is blended with F8BT, dotted ECL signals are observed and transported as waves. When poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), more soluble in the electrolyte, is blended with F8BT, PMMA serves as local scratches and ECL waves are triggered simultaneously from the whole film.
