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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
