Exp2. Nanofabrication by Polymer Self-Assembly

1. Abstract

Nanofabrication using polymer self-assembly represents a cutting-edge approach in the field of materials science and engineering, allowing the creation of nanoscale structures with high precision and efficiency. This technique leverages the unique properties of polymers, which can spontaneously organize themselves into well-defined structures at the nanoscale under appropriate conditions. The process begins with the selection of specific block copolymers, which are composed of two or more chemically distinct polymer segments. These blocks tend to separate on the nanoscale due to their differing affinities for solvents, leading to phase separation that can be tuned based on composition, molecular weight, and processing conditions. The self-assembly of these block copolymers can yield various nanoscale patterns, including lamellae, cylinders, and spheres, which can be utilized in a multitude of applications ranging from nanoelectronics to biomedical devices.
