Mechanical Activation of Chemical Bonds at Polymer Interfaces

Polymer brushes are a specific class of polymer thin films in which each chain is tethered to the underlying substrate via one chain end. In sufficiently densely grafted assemblies, the individual polymer chains are forced into an extended chain conformati ...

Three-dimensional fabrication of sub-micron optical waveguides in PDMS and other polymer materials

Giulia Panusa

Optical waveguides are one of the most important photonic components. They are indispensable tools in many of todayâ s technologies because of their capacity of guiding light. In particular, compact, low loss, flexible polymer optical waveguides are cruci ...

Complex polymer topologies and polymer-nanoparticle hybrid films prepared via surface-initiated controlled radical polymerization

Harm-Anton Klok, Piotr Mocny

Advances in controlled radical polymerization over the past two decades have transformed the ability to produce molecularly well-defined, chain-end tethered polymer brush films. The assets of controlled radical polymerization reactions have impacted the sy ...

Direct, Mediated, and Delayed Intramolecular Singlet Fission Mechanism in Donor-Acceptor Copolymers

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Maria Fumanal Quintana

Donor-acceptor (D-A) extended copolymers have shown great potential to be exploited for intramolecular singlet fission (iSF) because of their modular tunability and intrinsic ability to incorporate low-lying charge-transfer (CT) and a triplet-pair (1TT) st ...

Phase behaviour and structure of a model biomolecular condensate

Julian Charles Shillcock

Phase separation of immiscible fluids is a common phenomenon in polymer chemistry, and is recognized as an important mechanism by which cells compartmentalize their biochemical reactions. Biomolecular condensates are condensed fluid droplets in cells that ...

Structural and Photophysical Templating of Conjugated Polyelectrolytes with Single-Stranded DNA

Ursula Röthlisberger, Polydefkis Diamantis, Natalie Renuka Banerji

A promising approach to influence and control the photophysical properties of conjugated polymers is directing their molecular conformation by templating. We explore here the templating effect of single-stranded DNA oligomers (ssDNAs) on cationic polythiop ...

Toward Bright Red-Emissive Carbon Dots through Controlling Interaction among Surface Emission Centers

Relatively weak red photoluminescence of carbon dots (CDots) is a major challenge on the way to their successful implementation in biological and optoelectronic devices. We present a theoretical analysis of the interaction among the surface emission center ...
