All-Conjugated, Rod-Rod Block Copolymers-Generation and Self-Assembly Properties

Based on their rigid‐rod structure all‐conjugated, rod‐rod block copolymers show a preferred tendency to self‐assemble into low‐curvature vesicular or lamellar nanostructures independent from their specific chemical structure and composition. This unique and attractive behaviour is clearly illustrated in a few examples of such all‐conjugated block copolymers. The resulting nanostructured heteromaterials may find applications in electronic devices or artificial membranes. The rigid‐rod structure all‐conjugated, rod‐rod block copolymers favour the formation of low‐curvature vesicular and lamellar aggregates. The resulting nanomaterials may find applications in electronic devices or artificial membranes.
