Block copolymers have received considerable attention as a promising platform for the
synthesis of nanomaterials and fabrication of nanostructures because of their self …

This chapter gives an overview of the research on the self-assembly of amorphous block
copolymers at different levels of hierarchy. Besides the influence of composition and …

Block copolymers demonstrate potential for use in next-generation lithography due to their
ability to self-assemble into well-ordered periodic arrays on the 3–100 nm length scale. The …

This Perspective summarizes the recent advances and perspective in three-dimensional
(3D) imaging techniques and their applications to polymer nanostructures, eg, microphase …

The electric field alignment of cylindrical microdomains in diblock copolymer thin films was
studied using small-angle neutron scattering and transmission electron microscopy. The …

An electric field induced sphere-to-cylinder transition in thin films of asymmetric polystyrene-
b-poly (methyl methacrylate) diblock copolymers was observed. In the absence of an …

The cylinder-to-gyroid transition in a block copolymer solution has been studied using a
combination of rheology and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). A poly (styrene-b …

Block copolymers that two or more polymer chains are covalently linked have drawn much
attention due to self-assembly into nanometer-sized morphology such as lamellae …

The Frank–Kasper σ phase and the dodecagonal quasicrystal (DDQC) have been found in
binary mixtures of block copolymers and homopolymers. In this study, the effect of the …

The kinetic pathway of the order–order transition (OOT) from a hexagonally packed cylinder
(HEX) to a hexagonally perforated layer (HPL) phase in polystyrene-block-poly (2 …
