A new approach is developed for the preparation of nanoporous gold (Au) films using diblock copolymer micelles as templates. Stable Au nanoparticles (NPs) with a narrow distribution are prepared by modifying NPs functionalized with 4‐(dimethylamino)pyridine ligands (DMAP Au NPs) and a spherical micelle formed through the epoxidation of poly(styrene‐ b ‐butadiene) diblock copolymer to produce poly(styrene‐ b ‐vinyl oxirane) (PS‐ b ‐PBO) in tetrahydrofuran–acetonitrile solution. The exchange reaction of 4‐aminothiophenol of PS‐ b ‐PBO diblock copolymer micelles with DMAP Au NPs can produce block copolymer–Au NPs composite films. After the pyrolysis of the diblock copolymer templates at a specific temperature to avoid the collapse of the Au NPs, a nanoporous Au film is prepared.
