Core−Shell Poly(allyamine hydrochloride)-Pyrene Nanorods Decorated with Gold Nanoparticles
TL;DR: Water-dispersible and fluorescent core-shell nanorods (NRs) consisting of covalently linked poly(allyamine hydrochloride)-pyrene (PAH-Py) were synthesized and used for fabricating hybrid organic-inorganic NRs as mentioned in this paper.

Self-assembly of diblock polythiophenes with discotic liquid crystals on side chains for the formation of a highly ordered nanowire morphology.
TL;DR: The results of X-ray diffraction indicate that both intermolecular interactions and mesogen packing are essential for the formation of nanostructures in the diblock copolymers.

Block Copolymer Nanostructures and Their Applications: A Review
Aditya Narayan Singh,Rupesh D. Thakre,Jignesh C. More,Pushpendra Kumar Sharma,Yadvendra K. Agrawal +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used block copolymer nanostructures and DNA combined with inorganic material nanoparticles and small organic moieties to enhance the chemical and biological behaviors of biomacromolecule and at the same time completely suppress undesirable properties.

Hierarchical nanopores formed by block copolymer lithography on the surfaces of different materials pre-patterned by nanosphere lithography
TL;DR: It is shown that NSL and BCP lithography can be combined to easily design hierarchically nanopatterned surfaces of different materials and it is demonstrated for the first time that vertical BCP nanopores can be formed on TiO2, Au and Pt films without using any neutralization layers.

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.
