Highly Ordered Magnetic Ceramic Nanorod Arrays from a Polyferrocenylsilane by Nanoimprint Lithography with Anodic Aluminum Oxide Templates

Abstract

A simple method is described to fabricate large area highly ordered periodic arrays of magnetic ceramic nanorods with precisely controllable dimensions and aspect ratios by nanoimprinting a high-ceramic-yield polyferrocenylsilane precursor using anodic aluminum oxide templates.
