The Process-Directed Self-Assembly of Block Copolymer Particles
Yanyan Zhu, Changhang Huang, Liangshun Zhang +2
The kinetic paths of structural evolution and formation of block copolymer (BCP) particles are explored using dynamic self-consistent field theory (DSCFT). It is shown that the pro…
The Chain Flexibility Effects on the Self-assembly of Diblock Copolymer in Thin Film
Mingyang Chen, Yuguo Chen, Yanyan Zhu +3
We investigate the effects of chain flexibility on the self-assembly behavior of symmetric diblock copolymers (BCPs) when they are confined as a thin film between two surfaces. Emp…
Formation of Diblock Copolymer Nanoparticles: Theoretical Aspects
Yanyan Zhu, Bin Zheng, David Andelman +1
We explore the shape and internal structure of diblock copolymer (di-BCP) nanoparticles (NPs) by using the Ginzburg-Landau free-energy expansion. The self-assembly of di-BCP lamell…
Effect of Sinusoidal Surface Roughness and Energy on the Orientation of Cylinder-Forming Block Copolymer Thin Films
Yanyan Zhu, Karim Aissou, David Andelman +1
We explore the relative stability of three possible orientations of cylinder-forming di-block copolymer on a sinusoidally corrugated substrate. The cylinders can be aligned either…
Ferromagnetic Enhancement of CE-type Spin Ordering in (Pr,Ca)MnO
S. Y. Zhou, Y. Zhu, M. C. Langner +12
We present resonant soft X-ray scattering (RSXS) results from small band width manganites (Pr,Ca)MnO, which show that the CE-type spin ordering (SO) at the phase boundary is st…
