Self-assembly of block copolymer materials (BCPs) and polymer brushes in the sub-50 nm length scale are explored in this thesis. BCPs and mixed polymer brushes
This unique text discusses the solution self-assembly of block copolymers and covers all aspects from basic physical chemistry to applications in soft nanotechn
The directed self-assembly (DSA) method of patterning for microelectronics uses polymer phase-separation to generate features of less than 20nm, with the positi
The unique structure and properties of brush polymers have led to increased interest in them within the scientific community. This thesis describes studies on t
