INTRODUCTION The field of single molecule research offers possibilities to study physico-chemical processes at a level of single molecules and single molecule events, and to design surfaces and devices operating with single molecules. Most of our knowledge was collected from the study of ensembles of molecules when properties are averaged over large number of molecules. Single molecule study al...
Precise synthesis of polymer brushes to modify the surface of nanoparticles and nanodevices for targeted applications has been one of the major focuses in the community for decades. Here we report a self-assembly-assisted-grafting-to approach to synthesize polymer brushes on flat substrates. In this method, polymers are pre-assembled into two-dimensional polymer single crystals (PSCs) with func...
We control the chain conformation of a semiconducting polymer by encapsulating it within the aligned nanopores of a silica host. The confinement leads to polarized, low-threshold amplified spontaneous emission from the polymer chains. The polymer enters the porous silica film from only one face and the filling of the pores is therefore graded. As a result, the profile of the index of refraction...
We present results from constant pressure molecular-dynamics simulations for a bead-spring model of a crystallizable polymer melt. Our model has two main features, a chemically realistic intrachain rigidity and a purely repulsive interaction between nonbonded monomers. By means of intrachain and interchain structure factors we explore polymer conformation and melt structure above and below the ...
Describing the kinetics of polymer reactions, such as the formation of loops and hairpins in nucleic acids or polypeptides, is complicated by the structural dynamics of their chains. Although both intramolecular reactions, such as cyclization, and intermolecular reactions have been studied extensively, both experimentally and theoretically, there is to date no exact explicit analytical treatmen...
This focused review addresses the fundamental development of nonfouling zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (polySBMA) coatings on a wide range of interfaces and membranes in our laboratory for use in the development of hemocompatible medical devices. The molecular designs of zwitterionic interfaces (for example, surface packing density, grafting coverage, polymer chain conformation an...
2014 Polarizing optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to study the structure of poly(di-n-hexylsilane) as a function of temperature. Liquid crystalline in nature, the polymer above 42 °C shows hexagonal columnar symmetry, with the columns formed of single polymer chains. The stacking period of the dihexylsilicon repeat units along the columnar axis is of about 1.56 Å. Far from bein...
Helical polymers of isocyanotripeptides derived from alanine have been synthesized and their architectures studied in detail. The helical conformation of the polyisocyanotripeptides is stabilized by internal hydrogen-bonding arrays between the tripeptide side chains. The possibility of extending the well-defined hydrogen-bonded array, from dipeptide to tripeptide side chains, depends strongly o...
The conformational and electronic properties of conducting flexible random and self-avoiding polymer chains are under investigation. A Hamiltonian for conjugated flexible polymers is introduced and its physical consequences are presented. One important result is that the electronic degrees of freedom greatly affect the conformational statistics of the walks and vice versa. The electronic degree...
In this paper we derive the general equilibrium equations of a polymer chain with a noncircular cross section by the variation of the free energy functional. From the equilibrium equation of the elastic ribbon we derive analytically the equilibrium conformations both of the helical ribbons and the twisted ribbons. We find that the pitch angle of the helical ribbons depends on the ratio of the t...
