This review article discusses the origins of self-assembly behavior of linear and non-linear
block co-and terpolymers and their application towards the fabrication of high-resolution …

Inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) with diversified functionalities are promising candidates in
future optoelectronic and biomedical applications, which greatly depend on the capability to …

Block copolymer thin films can be used as soft templates for a wide range of surfaces where
large area patterns of nanoscale features are desired. The cylindrical domains of acid …

The dispersion of magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) in homopolymer poly (methyl
methacrylate)(PMMA) and block copolymer poly (styrene-b-methyl methacrylate)(PS-b …

Gold nanorods (NRs) self-orient during the self-assembly of a symmetric poly (styrene-b-
methyl methacrylate)(PS-b-PMMA) film. The NRs are selectively sequestered and confined …

Direct embedding of Cu nanoparticles into the PVA surface is detected by AFM and a fresh
embedding mechanism submitted via the change of the annealing temperatures (T …

The phase behavior of supramolecular nanocomposite thin films was systematically
investigated as a function of nanoparticle (NP) loading from 1 to> 50 wt%. The coassembly …

In this paper, polymer nanocomposite films containing gold nanorods (AuNRs) and poly (2-
vinyl pyridine)(P2VP) have been investigated for their structure–optical property relationship …

Multicolor or white light-emitting systems have attracted great attention because of their
potential uses as lighting sources and full-color displays.[1] In recent years, numerous efforts …

Photocatalytic porous coatings (micro-, meso-and macroporous) are obtained by the
dispersion of TiO2 nanoparticles in sol–gel hybrid matrices. The sol–gel silica matrix is used …
