What is Block Copolymer Lithography? Block copolymer lithography is a nanofabrication technique that utilizes the self-assembly properties of block copolymers to create ordered nanostructures. Block ...

Self-assembly is a powerful paradigm, wherein molecules spontaneously form ordered phases exhibiting well-defined nanoscale periodicity and shapes. However, the inherent energy-minimization aspect of ...

A combination of self-assembly and jet printing can be used to create block copolymer films with complex structures and tunable periodicities across a large substrate. Block copolymer nanolithography ...

Schematic depiction of polymer brush formation through the surface segregation and lateral self-assembly of a block copolymer consisting of a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) connected with ...

The amphiphilic nature of Pluronics enables them to self-assemble in aqueous solutions, forming core-shell micelles. This property is particularly valuable in drug delivery systems, where Pluronics ...

With blazing speed and seemingly limitless digital memory, the personal computers of the early 1990s rocketed past those that ranked as state-of-the-art just a couple of years earlier. Within a few ...

A relatively fast, easy and inexpensive technique for inducing nanorods – rod-shaped semiconductor nanocrystals – to self-assemble into one-, two- and even three-dimensional macroscopic structures has ...
