Nanoscale Features

Block copolymer (BCP) lithography makes use of the microphase separation properties of BCPs to pattern ordered nanoscale features over large areas. This work presents the microphase separation of an asymmetric polystyrene-block-poly(ferrocenyl dimethylsilane) (PS-b-PFS) BCP that allows ordered arrays of nanostructures to be formed by spin casting PS-b-PFS on substrates and subsequent solvent annealing. The effects of the solvent annealing conditions on self-assembly and structural stability are discussed.

As a “bottom-up” approach to nanostructures for nanofabrication, self-assembled block copolymer thin films have received much attention not only thanks to the scale of the microdomains but also due to the convenient shape tunability. In order to realize applications of self-assembled block copolymer thin films in nanotechnologies, control over microdomain spatial and orientational order is paramount. In this paper, using atomic force microscopy (AFM), we studied systemically nanostructure transitions induced by post-solvent annealing in self-assembled block copolymer thin films. Furthermore, a variety of thin films with well-ordered nanostructures, which can be employed as templates for nanotechnologies, have been realized simply and at low cost.
