Abstract

Summary: The present study provides some basic concepts of functionalization of diblock copolymer (BC) nanotemplates for optical applications. It is focused on the polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) building medium which is suitable for hydrogen bonding, undergoes phase segregation, and is well-accessible. Two techniques are described and demonstrated on several dye complexes with PS-b-P4VP. Relation between optical properties and thin film structure is tentatively studied in dependence on solvent effects in thin films.
