Exp2. Nanofabrication by Polymer Self-Assembly

1. Abstract

Nanofabrication by polymer self-assembly represents a significant advancement in the field of materials science and nanotechnology, offering innovative approaches to create structures at the nanoscale with high precision and efficiency. This method leverages the inherent properties of polymers, which can spontaneously organize themselves into well-defined patterns and structures driven by thermodynamic principles. The process typically involves the selective phase separation of block copolymers, where different polymer segments exhibit distinct affinities for each other, leading to the formation of micro- or nanostructured domains upon solvent evaporation or thermal annealing. Such self-assembled structures can serve as templates or scaffolds for further processing, enabling the fabrication of functional nanostructures with applications in electronics, photonics, biomedicine, and beyond. The versatility of polymer self-assembly allows for the engineering of materials w
