Advances in synthetic polymer chemistry have unleashed seemingly unlimited strategies for
producing block polymers with arbitrary numbers (n) and types (k) of unique sequences of …

We review the latest developments in computational methods for direct simulation of fully
fluctuating field theories of polymeric assemblies. In this context, we describe a newly …

Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is a powerful tool for the design and interpretation of
experiments on block polymer materials. In this Perspective, we lower the barrier to entry to …

We have performed dissipative particle dynamics simulations to study the self-assembly of
ABC-type bottlebrush copolymers (BBCPs), one portion of whose backbone is grafted by …

Self-assembling block copolymers provide access to the fabrication of various ordered
phases. In particular, the ordered spherical phases can be used to engineer soft …

Block copolymer self-assembly provides a platform for fabricating dense, ordered
nanostructures by encoding information in the chemical architecture of multicomponent …

We report the phase behavior of a series of poly (styrene)-b-poly (isoprene)-b-poly
(styrene)′-b-poly (ethylene oxide)(SIS′ O) tetrablock terpolymers. This study was …

Bottlebrush block polymers are a promising platform for self-assembled photonic materials,
yet most work has been limited to one-dimensional photonic crystals based on the lamellar …

Block copolymers (BCPs) are particularly effective in creating soft nanostructured templates
for transferring complex 3D network structures into inorganic materials that are difficult to …

We propose and describe a framework to understand the structure of supramolecular
network crystals formed in soft matter in terms of mesoatomic building blocks, collective …
