Abstract

We report a novel method for the fabrication of polymeric Janus nanorods <i>via</i> sequential polymerization from anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates. Dual compositions can be incorporated into individual nanorods and endow versatile potential applications. This fabrication strategy paves the way for constructing multifunctional nanostructures and brings together different materials in a single entity.
