Lateral copolymer domain patterning through thermal gradients

Lateral patterns in thin films of microsegregated copolymers can be controlled through the application of a static thermal gradient. Patterns are promoted lateral to the imposed gradient. Calculations in a lattice self-consistent field method are presented and compare favorably with predictions of a...

Description
Summary:Lateral patterns in thin films of microsegregated copolymers can be controlled through the application of a static thermal gradient. Patterns are promoted lateral to the imposed gradient. Calculations in a lattice self-consistent field method are presented and compare favorably with predictions of a simple scaling theory.
