Post-Fabrication Placement of Arbitrary Chemical Functionality on Microphase-Separated Thin Films of Amine-Reactive Block Copolymers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report an approach to the post-fabrication placement of chemical functionality on microphase-separated thin films of a reactive block copolymer. Our approach makes use of an azlactone-containing block copolymer that microphase separates into domains of perpendicularly-oriented lamellae. These thin films present nanoscale patterns of amine-reactive groups (reactive stripes) that serve as handles for the immobilization of primary amine-containing functionality. We demonstrate that arbitrary chemical functionality can be installed by treatment with aqueous solutions under mild conditions that do not perturb underlying microphase-separated patterns dictated by the structure of the reactive block copolymer. This post-fabrication approach provides a basis for the development of modular approaches to the design of microphase-separated block copolymer thin films and access to coatings with patterned chemical domains and surface properties that would be difficult to prepare by the self-assembly and processing of functionally complex block copolymers.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
