Abstract

We report on the formation of hierarchical nanostructures of Au, Pt, Fe2O3 and PdO2 using a hybrid technique combining laser interference patterning (LIP) and block copolymer phase separation (BCPS). By varying the loading time of the block copolymer with metallic salts and the laser interference technique, different types of hierarchical square, triangular, linear and circular arrays can be formed. Such a robust method can be applied to other metallic and ceramic materials and has potential for use in the large-scale production of nano-catalysts, photonics, optoelectronics, MEMS devices and bio-sensors.
