Abstract Tubular architecture has been extensively exploited in diverse applications such as solar cells and sensors. However, the synthesis of microtubes with high aspect ratio using polymer templates has been rarely reported. In this study, we designed a facile avenue for the synthesis of well-aligned Au nanoparticle-agglomerate microtubes with an aspect ratio of ~ 30 using a hollow polyetherimide (PEI) template. The combination of wet phase inversion and use of a Cu grid mask enabled straightforward production of a hollow PEI template with vertically aligned tubular architecture. During wet-phase inversion, exchange between a solvent (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone) and a non-solvent (water) occurred at the corners of the square mask cells rather than along their side, thereby producing pores at the corners due to geometrical and entropic factors. The hollow microtubes were comprised of agglomerated Au nanoparticles that coated the inner surfaces of the pores during an electroless plating process performed after wet-phase inversion. This finding is applicable to diverse applications such as sensors and catalysis. |
