Block copolymer (BCP) thin films have shown high potential as a pattern transfer medium for ultra-fine (<20 nm) features. We introduce an effective approach for performing rapid local annealing of BCP films by focused laser spike (FLaSk) zone annealing, using a moving highly-focused circularly polarized visible wavelength laser spot. A poly(styrene-b-dimethylsiloxane) BCP was transformed from a...
A poly(l-lactic acid)-block-polystyrene-block-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PLLA-b-PS-b-PMMA) triblock copolymer was synthesized with a crystalline PLLA end block. Single crystals of this triblock copolymer grown in dilute solution could generate uniformly tethered diblock copolymer brushes, PS-b-PMMA, on the PLLA single crystal substrate. The diblock copolymer brushes exhibited responsive, characteristic...
A polymer blend system consisting of polystyrene grafted onto poly (p-phenylene ethynylene) (PS-g-PPE) and poly (styrene-block-isoprene-block-styrene) triblock copolymer (SIS) yields highly polarized emission due to the unidirectional alignment of the PPE molecules. During the roll casting, the triblock copolymer microphase separates and creates unidirectionally aligned PS cylindrical microdomains...
A high molecular weight polystyrene-block-polyisoprene copolymer was synthesized by anionic polymerization of styrene and isoprene monomers. Polystyrene cylindrical domains in a hexagonal lattice with relatively large periodicity and controlled orientation have been produced through roll casting of the polystyrene-block-polyisoprene copolymer with a total molecular weight of 1.0×10 6 g/mol...
