In recent years, block copolymer lithography has emerged as a viable alternative technology for advanced lithography. In chemical-epitaxy-directed self-assembly, the interfacial energy between the substrate and each block copolymer domain plays a key role on the final ordering. Here, we focus on the experimental characterization of the chemical interactions that occur at the interface built between different chemical guiding patterns and the domains of the block copolymers. We have chosen hard X-ray high kinetic energy photoelectron spectroscopy as an exploration technique because it provides information on the electronic structure of buried interfaces. The outcome of the characterization sheds light onto key aspects of directed self-assembly: grafted brush layer, chemical pattern creation and brush/block co-polymer interface.

A short-chain triblock copolymer EO9-DMS7-EO9 was synthesized by couplingreaction of allyl-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) and Si–H-terminatedpoly(dimethylsiloxane). The structure and purity of synthesized copolymer wascarefully characterized. Self-assembly behavior of EO9-DMS7-EO9 triblockcopolymer in water was investigated. And it was found that along with theincrease of copolymer concentration, morphology of self-assembled aggregatestransits from sphere to rod. A plausible understanding of the morphologytransition for the investigated triblock copolymer was proposed

Abstract Block copolymer (BCP) self-assembly processes are often seen as reliable techniques for advanced nanopatterning to achieve functional surfaces and create templates for nanofabrication. By taking advantage of the tunability in pitch, diameter and feature-to-feature separation of the self-assembled BCP features, complex, laterally organized- and stacked- multicomponent nanoarrays comprising of gold and polymer have been fabricated. The approaches not only demonstrate nanopatterning of up to two levels of hierarchy but also investigate how a variation in the feature-to-feature gap at the first hierarchy affects the self-assembly of polymer features at the second. Such BCP self-assembly enabled multicomponent nanoarray configurations are rarely achieved by other nanofabrication approaches and are particularly promising for pushing the boundaries of block copolymer lithography and in creating unique surface architectures and complex morphologies at the nanoscale.
