Abstract
We have developed strongly-segregating chemically tailored block copolymers (BCPs), a series of post-functionalized polystyrene-b-polymethacrylates that can form sub-10 nm perpendicular lamellae on thin films by thermal annealing. The desired BCPs successfully synthesized by thiol-epoxy reaction of poly(glycidyl methacrylate)s, a partial component of polystyrene-b-polymethacrylates, with trifluoroethane thiol. Microdomains in the obtained BCP thin films were vertically oriented by tuning the Neutral Layer, and highly aligned and distinct vertical lamellae with L0=15.1 nm were successfully obtained on the guide pattern substrate for DSA.
