Preferred domain orientation in block copolymer fibers after solvent annealing

Abstract

Via solvent annealing, PMMA-b-PS nanofibers form long-range ordered nanostructures with a preferred domain orientation that is perpendicular to the fiber axis. Solvent annealing represents a powerful new strategy for controlling the block copolymer nanostructures in fibers.
