Abstract

High aspect-ratio nanochannels were fabricated by irradiating polyimide films with swift heavy ions of 2.2 GeV energy and subsequently sensitising and etching the ion tracks in hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochloride, respectively. The nanochannels were analysed by means of small angle X-ray scattering in combination with a new form factor model that considers bi-conical channel geometry. This approach allows us to tune the etching parameters for controlled channel shape adjustment.
