Gold nanoparticle density-multiplication by tuning block copolymer self-assembly processes toward increased charge storage
TL;DR: In this article, a simple and versatile approach for enhanced nanoparticle density multiplication through the block copolymer self-assembly technique for application in memory devices is described, which offers exciting opportunities to fabricate multicomponent nanostructure-based memory devices tailored for enhanced memory performance.

The unexpected behaviour of epoxidised macromonomers derived from catalytic chain transfer during ring opening copolymerisation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the homopolymerisation and copolymerisation behavior of epoxidised CCTP-derived (macro)monomers, and observed that the epoxides did not act as a comonomer but rather as an end-capper, providing a functional end group.

Amphiphilic liquid‐crystalline 4‐miktoarm star copolymers with a siloxane junction leading to cylindrically nanostructured templates for a siloxane‐based nanodot array
TL;DR: In this paper, the A3B-, A2B2-, and AB3-type 4-miktoarm star copolymers were synthesized using a combined route composed of a thiol-ene click reaction and atom transfer radical polymerization.

Method for defining a self-assembling unit of a block copolymer
TL;DR: In this article, a method for determining a self-assembly pattern of a block copolymer confined inside a closed outline called the guiding outline is described, which is implemented by computer.

Ordered mesoporous molecular sieves synthesized by a liquid-crystal template mechanism
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of mesoporous inorganic solids from calcination of aluminosilicate gels in the presence of surfactants is described, in which the silicate material forms inorganic walls between ordered surfactant micelles.

Block Copolymer Thermodynamics: Theory and Experiment
TL;DR: Block copolymers are macromolecules composed of sequences, or blocks, of chemically distinct repeat units that make possible the sequential addition of monomers to various carbanion-ter minated ("living") linear polymer chains.

Block Copolymers—Designer Soft Materials
TL;DR: The Knitting Pattern as mentioned in this paper is a block copolymer that was discovered by Reimund Stadler and his coworkers and reflects a delicate free-energy minimization that is common to all blockcopolymer materials.
