- Abstract
- The synthesis of nanotubes (NT) by layer-by-layer (LbL) coating of porous membrane templates was presented. Polycarbonate membranes containing cylindrical pores were used. The diameter of the NTs was correlated to the the membrane pore diameters and the maximum lenghts of the NTs to the thickness of the membranes. The optical properties of the nanotubes were analyzed using fluorescence spectroscopy.
