Nanopatterns of polymer brushes for understanding protein adsorption on the nanoscale† [PDF]
We present fabrication of patterned poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) brushes with sub-100 nm features over large areas. The patterned polymer brushes are fabricated by a combination of block copolymer micelle lithography and surface ...
