Using an anodic alumina membrane with an ordered nanopore array as a template, we have fabricated a two-dimensional light-emitting nanopolymer array by embedding the luminescence polymer MEH-PPV into the nanopores. It is revealed experimentally that the conformation of the MEH-PPV chains in the nanopores is in the form of a bunch of polymer chains. The number of the polymer chains in a bunch depends on the concentration of the polymer solution and the diameters of nanopores in the template. Investigation on the photoluminescence spectra of the nano-MEH-PPV array annealed under different temperatures shows that the nanopores can effectively hinder the relaxation of MEH-PPV, which leads to its high thermal stability.
