BLOCK COPOLYMERS AND THEIR COMPOSITES WITH INORGANIC NANOPARTICLES, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME

摘要

Block copolymers, block copolymer and inorganic nanoparticle composite materials and devices including such composite materials. The block copolymers have polar functional groups that can facilitate the dispersion of inorganic nanoparticles in composite materials. The nanoparticles can be used in devices such as optical/microelectronic sensors, transistors, memory storage devices, and photovoltaic devices.
