Functional materials from colloidal self-assembly
This book introduces the fascinating world of self-assembly in mesoporous ordered silica films. Beginning from a single droplet, it guides the reader, in a step-by-step learning process, how to obtain and control ordered porous mesophases in thin films by varying only the precur…
This book reviews the directed self-assembly (DSA) method technology of patterning for microelectronics. Topics include: overview of the physics and chemistry of block copolymer (BCP) materials; synthesis of new materials and new processing methods for DSA; key modelling and cha…
The directed self-assembly (DSA) method of patterning for microelectronics uses polymer phase-separation to generate features of less than 20nm, with the positions of self-assembling materials externally guided into the desired pattern. Directed self-assembly of Block Co-polymer…

In complex macromolecules, minor modifications can generate major changes, due to self-assembling capacities of macromolecular or supramolecular networks. Controlled Drug Delivery highlights how the multifunctionality of several materials can be achieved and valorized for pharma…
