Microtubes and microfibres composed of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) were fabricated by melt-assisted templates using ordered macroporous silicon. We have studied the influence of the pore depth and the template type on the microstructure fabrication, where the templates were membranes or structures opened only at one end. Current– voltage (I–V) measurements demostrated that the resistivity of these P3HT microstructures was in the same order as that of homogeneous films, which allows them to be used in electronic devices.
