Polymer mixtures and block copolymers in thin film geometry find much recent attention, both theoretically [1–63] and experimentally [5, 7, 8, 29, 64–122]. This interest arises …
Thin films of polymer semiconductors are being intensively investigated for large-area electronics applications such as light-emitting diodes, photovoltaic cells and thin-film …

We develop a numerical method for examining complex morphologies in thin films of block copolymer using self-consistent field theory. Applying the method to confined films of …
The structure of thin films of a symmetric diblock copolymer, P (dS-b-MMA)(dS= perdeuterated styrene, MMA= methyl methacrylate), was investigated near preferential and …

Determining the relationship between charge transport and morphology is key to increasing the charge carrier mobility of conjugated polymers. This review details a fundamental study …
We have used a dynamic density functional theory (DDFT) for polymeric systems, to simulate the formation of micro phases in a melt of an asymmetric block copolymer, A n B m (f A= 1/3) …
We report the first Monte Carlo simulations of the morphology of asymmetric diblock copolymer thin films confined between two homogeneous and identical surfaces. The …
