Abstract

Recent advances in the process of using single layers of diblock copolymer micelles for the fabrication of arrays of nanoparticles were highlighted. The technique using a monolayer of diblock copolymer micelles as an effective nanostructured template allowed precise control over the type, size, location, and ordering regularity of nanoparticles. The approach using copolymer micelles was fully compatible with top-down lithographical methods for micropatterning of nanoparticles. In addition, an array of two types of nanoparticles in specific positions was effectively fabricated for a multifunctional array. A near-perfect hexagonal array of nanoparticles was also created by solvent annealing in situ on a single layered film of copolymer micelles prior to synthesizing nanoparticles.
