A film layer comprising a high-chi (χ) block copolymer for self-assembly and a hexafluoroalcohol-containing surface active polymer (SAP) was prepared on a substrate surface that was neutral wetting to the domains of the self-assembled block copolymer. The block copolymer comprises at least one polycarbonate block and at least one other block (e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted styrene-based block). The film layer, whose top surface has contact with an atmosphere, self-assembles to form a lamellar or cylindrical domain pattern having perpendicular orientation with respect to the underlying surface. Other morphologies (e.g., islands and holes of height 1.0 Lo) were obtained with films lacking the SAP. The SAP is preferentially miscible with, and lowers the surface energy of, the domain comprising the polycarbonate block.
在对自组装嵌段聚合物的畴具有中性润湿性的基底表面上制备了由用于自组装的高驰(χ)嵌段共聚物和含六
氟丙醇的表面活性聚合物(
SAP)组成的薄膜层。该嵌段共聚物包括至少一个聚
碳酸酯嵌段和至少一个其他嵌段(如取代或未取代的
苯乙烯基嵌段)。薄膜层的上表面与大气接触,可自组装形成相对于底层表面具有垂直取向的片状或圆柱状畴纹。缺乏
SAP 的薄膜还能形成其他形态(如高度为 1.0 Lo 的岛屿和洞)。
SAP 能优先与包含聚
碳酸酯块的畴混溶并降低其表面能。
