Block copolymer self‐assembly represents a versatile route to generate nanostructured materials with precisely defined architectures. Block copolymers, featuring covalently bonded segments of distinct ...

Block copolymers, comprising two or more chemically distinct polymer segments covalently bonded together, present a versatile framework for the formation of diverse nanostructured materials. The ...

“While block copolymer (BCP) lithography is theoretically capable of printing features smaller than 10 nm, developing practical BCPs for this purpose remains challenging. Herein, we report the ...

Physicists show that the shape of components is a major determinant of how quickly and efficiently complex structures self-assemble. Physicists at LMU Munich show that the shape of components is a ...

Self-healing coatings are advanced materials that can repair damage, such as scratches and cracks on their own. Researchers have developed an efficient method for preparing self-healing films ...

As technology continues to advance, scientists and engineers are constantly searching for more efficient and effective ways to create new materials and devices. One increasingly popular method is self ...
