Co-existing morphologies of lamellae and double arrays of cylinders by A1BA2C tetrablock terpolymer

open access: yesGiant, 2023
Here, we observed, via small-angle X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy, co-existing morphologies of lamellae and cylinders by precisely tailoring the volume fraction of each block in polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene-b-poly(2 ...

Self-assembled pagoda-like nanostructure-induced vertically stacked split-ring resonators for polarization-sensitive dichroic responses

open access: yesNano Convergence, 2022
Stacked split-ring resonators (SSRR) arrays exhibiting polarization-sensitive dichroic responses in both visible and near-infrared wavelengths are realized over a centimeter-scale large area.

Phospholipid-mimicking block, graft, and block-graft copolymers for phase-transition microbubbles as ultrasound contrast agents

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Background: Lipid and polymer microbubbles (MBs) are widely used as ultrasound contrast agents in clinical diagnosis, and possess great potential in ultrasound-mediated therapy due to their drug loading function.

Synthesis of Block Copolymer Brush by RAFT and Click Chemistry and Its Self-Assembly as a Thin Film

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
A well-defined block copolymer brush poly(glycidyl methacrylate)-graft-(poly(methyl methacrylate)-block- poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate)) (PGMA-g-(PMMA-b-POEGMA)) is synthesized via grafting from an approach based on a combination ...

Block Copolymer Nanocontainers

open access: yesACS Nano, 2010
Using cell dynamics computer simulation, we perform a systematic study of thin block copolymer films around a nanoparticle. Lamellar-, cylinder-, and sphere-forming block copolymers are investigated with respect to different film thicknesses, particle radii, and boundary conditions at the film interfaces.

Mesoscale Block Copolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2018
AbstractMaterials composed of well‐defined mesoscale building blocks are ubiquitous in nature, with noted ability to assemble into hierarchical structures possessing exceptional physical and mechanical properties. Fabrication of similar synthetic mesoscale structures will offer opportunities for precise conformational tuning toward advantageous bulk ...

Simultaneous fabrication of line and dot dual nanopatterns using miktoarm block copolymer with photocleavable linker

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Block copolymers that form nanodomains and are used in nanolithography usually do not form nanopatterns with multiple shapes. Here the authors report a block copolymer that allows for UV- induced cleavage of one arm and demonstrate the transformation of ...
