10. We have preliminarily screened several solvents (chloroform, methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran, benzene, chlorobenzene, and toluene) for this annealing technique. In terms of ordering our block copolymer thin films over large areas, toluene was the most successful and the only solvent capable of generating the nanoporous cylindrical morphology.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and commensurability arguments have been used to propose that poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane) has a slight preference for the substrate in polystyrene block copolymers.

Unfortunately, an interesting interfacial staining artifact prevents confirmation of this morphology with complete certainty. See: Wang, Y.; Coombs, N.; Turak, A.; Lu, Z.-H.; Manners, I.; Winnik, M.
