Arbitrary lattice symmetries via block copolymer nanomeshes
Self-assembly of block copolymers is a powerful motif for spontaneously forming well-defined nanostructures over macroscopic areas. Yet, the inherent energy minimization criteria of self-assembly give rise to a limited library of structures; diblock copolymers naturally form spheres on a cubic lattice, hexagonally packed cylinders and alternating lamellae. Here, we demonstrate multicomponent na...
متن کاملHierarchy in Block Copolymer Morphology
In the recent years, the study of block copolymers has received special attention from polymer scientists, as it has proved to be of a great importance in a variety of fields like life-sciences, tissue engineering, drug delivery, and nanotechnology and material sciences. This has led to a thorough investigation of the “hierarchy of the block copolymer morphology” i.e. the microscopic level chan...
متن کاملBlock copolymer micelle nanolithography
Au-nanoclusters between 2 and 8 nm in diameter were deposited onto solid substrates in different pattern geometries. The basis of this approach is the self-assembly of polystyrene-b-poly[2-vinylpyridine (HAuCl4)] diblock copolymer micelles into uniform monomicellar films on solid supports such as Si-wafers or glass cover slips. HAuCl4 as metallic precursor or a single solid Au-nanoparticle caus...
متن کاملBlock copolymer nanostructures
JUN-AUG 2008 | VOLUME 3 | NUMBER 3-4 38 Block copolymers occupy a huge area of research because they offer a vast range of possibilities for architecture, size, and chemical composition. Advances in polymer chemistry1, such as anionic polymerisation2 and most recently living radical polymerization3, have enabled a vast array of block copolymers to be synthesized with great control over their ar...
متن کاملSymmetries in Rectangular Block-Packing
The block-packing problem has applications in chip design, factory layout, container shipment optimization, scheduling and other areas. It has been actively studied in the last 20 years, but symmetry in packings has been neglected. Our work deals with symmetry in several formulations of block-packing, including optimization and constraint-satisfaction variants, as well as slicing and non-slicin...
