Cover Story: The spatially-selective lamellar orientation of polystyrene-block-poly (methyl methacrylate) (PS-b-PMMA) can be achieved by the modification of underlying self-assembled monolayers (SAM), which is induced by an electron beam (EB). Using EB lithography to change the polarity of different regions of SAM controls the lamellar orientation of PS-b-PMMA. The reduction of SAM substrates plays a crucial role in the ordering.

Directed self-assembly (DSA) was investigated on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) chemically modified by electron beam (EB) irradiation, which is composed of 6-(4-nitrophenoxy) hexane-1-thiol (NPHT). Irradiating a NPHT by EB could successfully induce...
