RESUMO

The response of polystyrene-block-poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PS-b-PDMS) thin films to UV exposure during solvent vapor annealing is described, in order to improve their applicability in nanolithography and nanofabrication. Two BCPs were examined, one with the PS block as majority (f PS = 68%, M n = 53 kg mol-1), the other with PDMS block as majority (f PDMS = 67%, M n = 44 kg mol-1). A 5 min UV irradiation was applied during solvent vapor annealing which led to both partial crosslinking of the polymer and a small increase in the temperature of the annealing chamber. This approach was effective for improving the correlation length of the self-assembled microdomain arrays and in limiting subsequent flow of the PDMS in the PDMS-majority BCP to preserve the post-anneal morphology. Ordering and orientation of microdomains were controlled by directed self-assembly of the BCPs in trench substrates. Highly-ordered perpendicular nanochannel arrays were obtained in the PDMS-majority BCP.

RESUMO

The authors present a detailed study of the microscopic parameters, which control the miscibility in binary linear/star polymer blends. The effective interactions of linear/star polymer blends are studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations and comparison is made with linear/linear and star/star blends, which they also determined. Using the bond fluctuation model on a simple cubic lattice, the authors are able to simulate symmetric linear/linear, star/star, and, for the first time, linear/star blends with a moderate number of arms. The simulations were performed at a volume fraction of occupied lattice sites phi=0.5, which corresponds to dense polymer mixtures for this algorithm. In particular, we study star/star blends with 4, 8, and 12 arms and the respective linear/linear blends as well as linear/star blends, all having the same total number of units equal to 73 and 121. The authors find that linear/star blends are more miscible than the corresponding linear/linear blends, which is in agreement with recent experimental and theoretical results. They find that linear/star mixtures are less miscible than star/star blends, a result which is also verified by theoretical findings.

RESUMO

Conformational properties of a dendritic block copolymer of the first generation are studied by means of an analytic calculation and dimensionality techniques. The polymer can have different functionalities and branch lengths in the interior region and the exterior shell. Three parameters are included in order to describe the intensity of the interactions between the same or different monomeric units. Based on the average end to end distances of the branches effective angles are defined in order to study how the microscopic parameters control the position and activity of the end groups, but also the hollowness in the internal region and the tweezing ability of the external shell of the macromolecule.

RESUMO

Three-dimensional ceramic nanostructured films were produced from silicon-containing triblock copolymer films exhibiting the double gyroid and inverse double gyroid morphologies (space group Ia3d). A one-step room-temperature oxidation process that used ozonolysis and ultraviolet irradiation effected both the selective removal of the hydrocarbon block and the conversion of the silicon-containing block to a silicon oxycarbide ceramic stable to 400 degrees C. Depending on the relative volume fraction of the hydrocarbon block to the silicon- containing block, either nanoporous or nanorelief structures were fabricated with calculated interfacial areas of approximately 40 square meters per gram and pore or strut sizes of approximately 20 nanometers.
