Molecular self-assembly of nylon-12 rods in self-organized nanoporous alumina cylinders with two different diameters (65 and 300 nm) is studied with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) in symmetrical reflection mode. In a rod with a 300 nm diameter, the tendency of the hydrogen-bonding direction of a γ-form crystal parallel to the long axis of the rod is not clear because of weak two-dimensional confinement. In a rod with a diameter of 65 nm, the tendency of the hydrogen-bonding direction of a γ-form crystal parallel to the long axis of the rod is more distinct because of strong two-dimensional confinement. For the first time, selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) is applied in a transmission electron microscope to a polymer nanorod in order to determine the hydrogen-bond sheet and lamellar orientations. Results of TEM–SAED and WAXD showed that the crystals within the rod possess the γ-form of nylon-12 and that thebaxis (stem axis) of the γ-form crystals is perpendicular to the long axis of the rod. These results revealed that only lamellae with 〈h0l〉 directions are able to grow inside the nanopores and the growth of lamellae with 〈hkl〉 (k≠ 0) directions is stopped owing to impingements against the cylinder walls. The dominant crystal growth direction of the 65 nm rod in stronger two-dimensional confinement is in between the [−201] and [001] directions due to the development of a hydrogen-bonded sheet restricted along the long axis of the rod.

Porous anodic alumina formation on silicon substrate is an example of a nanostructured porous array that is well-suited as a template for growing metallic nanowires. Commercial silicon wafer deposited with aluminum is used as substrate. Prior to anodization, the aluminum film is cleaned with mixture of acids solution to remove its native oxide growth. Anodization of aluminum film on silicon wafer is performed in oxalic acid solution to generate uniform and self-organized nanoporous alumina film. The pores are in the range of 60 nm diameter and pore density is about 9 × 109/ cm 2. The nanoporous alumina template is filled with nickel nanowires by wet electrodeposition process. After nanowire is grown on silicon wafer, the alumina template is etched and the as grown nickel nanowire forest is patterned using laser pruning method. The crystallinity pattern of the as grown nickel naowire forest is characterized using X-ray diffraction technique.
