Abstract
The fabrication of conducting poly (o-phenylenediamine) nanotube by electropolymerisation on alumina wafers (Whatman Anodisc 47 filter disk) is described. The nanotubes have been characterized by FTIR, UV-vis, SEM, TEM and AFM studies. SEM and TEM results reveal that the polymer nanotubes have uniform and well-aligned arrays and their diameter and length match with the aspect ratios of the anodisc aluminium oxide (AAO) membrane.
