Controlled Assembly of Block Copolymer Coated Nanoparticles in 2D Arrays

Abstract: The defined assembly of nanoparticles (NPs) in polymer matrices is an important prerequisite for next‐generation functional materials. A promising approach to control NP positions in polymer matrices at the nanometer scale is the use of block copolymers. It allows the selective deposition of NPs in nanodomains, but the final defined and ordered positioning of the NPs within the domains has not been possible. This can now be achieved by coating NPs with block copolymers. The self‐assembly of block copolymer‐coa… Show more

“…31 By this strategy, we obtained a hybrid system, consisting of lamellae where the NPs aligned with a periodicity of 3 nm. Specific lamellar SA of nanoparticles have already been reported, with liquid crystals, 32 diblock copolymers, [33][34][35] or peptidic polymers. 36 But to our knowledge, even if demonstrated for molecular clusters, 37 no work has described organization of ultra-small NPs in quasi perfect linear assemblies with a periodicity lower than 5 nm, so far.…”

“…This is on first instance counter intuitive,since lower grafting densities correspond to larger nanoparticle volume fractions. Forahomogeneous distribution of nanoparticles this would lead to smaller inter-particle distances,l eading to peak shifts to higher q-values.Inthe present case the nanoparticles form alinear array within cylindrical domains.Itisalready known from 2D-studies [14,20] that lower ligand grafting densities reduce the distance between the nanoparticles.T his is accompanied by ar edistribution of ligand polymers from the inter particle region to the peripheral region of the cylindrical domains,w hich increases the inter cylinder distance.Asthe first order peak position is directly related to the inter cylinder distance,aconcomitant shift to lower q-values is…”
