Self-Assembled Metallized Cylindrical Nanostructures: Creation, Manipulation and Function

Objetivo

In this proposal a plan is outlined which aims to develop the solution self-assembly of metal containing block copolymers. The program will develop novel cylindrical nanostructures and explore their applications as nanosize wire-like architectures. The materials will combine the novel functional properties imparted by the presence of metal atoms to the core of the nanostructure.

The interdisciplinary project will involve synthetic polymer chemistry, detailed characterization and studies of physical properties. Applications of the materials in nanoscience, for example in devices and as etch resists, will then be explored.

Applications in the nanomaterials area will be studied not only in the Manners laboratory but also by:
i) making use of membership in the U K's Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Nanotechnology
ii) the facilities in the new Bristol Nanoscience and Quantum Information Building to be completed in 2006 and
iii) developing collaborative interactions within the EU. A key aim will also be to develop interactions with world leading scientists elsewhere in Europe interested in the applications block copolymers in nanoscience.

The aim will be to create interactions which will facilitate information and expertise exchange and which will ultimately set up possibilities for new collaborative research projects which utilize the expertise of the applicant (Manners) and which open up new vistas with the EU at the cutting edge of this globally competitive area. This will be accomplished through travel of the applicant to these groups and institutions to visit, interact, and to give lectures.
