Ferroelectric polymer nanopillar arrays on flexible substrates by reverse nanoimprint lithography

Abstract: aWith the increasing interest in deploying ferroelectric polymer in flexible electronics and electromechanics, high-throughput and low-cost fabrication of 3D ferroelectric polymer nanostructures on flexible substrates can be a significant basis for future research and applications. Here, we report that large arrays of ferroelectric polymer nanopillars can be prepared directly on soft, flexible substrates by using low-cost polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) soft-mold reverse nanoimprint lithography at 135 1C and at pr… Show more

“…Further details of ferroelectric polymer nanostructures under connement has been described 111 and recently nanostructured arrays of PVDF based polymers have been formed by nanoimprint lithography. 112 2.2.5 Surface charge and nucleation. The nucleation behaviour of a polymer depends on the properties of the nucleating agents, such as surface charge, surface area, lattice matching, concentration and dispersion, as well as the interfacial interactions between the nucleating agents with PVDF chains.…”

“…The ferroelectric polymers, however, have not proven particularly amenable to synthetic modification for optimizing ferroelectric properties in the way the ferroelectric oxides have [28]. Polymers are also limited to polymorphous sample structures, and are therefore limited in terms of performance, due to the difficulty in obtaining long-range crystalline order [29,30]. Molecular ferroelectrics, on the other hand, readily grow into large single crystals and afford greater synthetic flexibility than polymers, while avoiding many of the difficulties presented by oxides.…”

“…Organic molecules can be selected, or designed, to suit specific needs, 1 leading to a rapid increase in both their use in fundamental physics and materials investigations, as well as in device applications. The latter includes organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays, [2][3][4] flexible electronics, [5][6][7] and even potential applications using voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy. [8][9][10] Organic ferroelectric materials effectively combine the customizability afforded by organic synthesis with the useful electro-physical behaviors of ferroelectric materials, applications of which range from piezoelectric transducers 11 to data storage.…”
