Directed self-assembly (DSA) is a nanofabrication technique in which self-assembling block copolymer thin films (BCP) are ordered using larger-scale, pre-defined guides patterned by standard ...

A new way of using self-assembling block copolymers (BCPs) to create patterned nanostructures has been unveiled by researchers in Canada. They found that arrays of BCPs with different lattice spacings ...

Quantum dots are materials which have their electrons confined in 3-dimensions and are often referred to as 0-dimensional. Quantum dots can aggregate together to create quantum dot arrays which ...

(Nanowerk News) Reporting their findings in Advanced Functional Materials ("Scalable Nanowire Photonic Crystals: Molding the Light Emission of InGaN"), researchers demonstrate the bottom-up synthesis ...
