This October we had an honour to host again prof. Richard Spontak from North Carolina State University. He shared with us his broad knowledge and experience in the polymer field during daily routine as well as during the course “”Recent Advances in the Design and Characterization of Polymer Systems Based on Block Copolymers”. This visit was possible to realize within the Visiting Professor Programme conducted by Biological and Chemical Research Centre (CNBCh).

Dr. Pawel W. Majewski
Marie Curie Fellowship
Self-assembled soft materials such as liquid crystals and block copolymers, thanks to their extraordinary ability to assemble into ordered periodic nanostructures are an elegant realization of Feynman’s bottom-up fabrication strategy. Our group contributes to the fundamental studies of soft materials with a focus on directed self-assembly and engineering novel functional nanostructured systems. Specifically, this group will develop novel techniques for accelerated directed self-assembly (DSA) of block copolymers (BCPs), study the formation of novel, non-conventional motifs in BCPs, and exploit these systems as smart functional materials (switchable membranes for ion conduction or filtration) and synthetic templates for functional nanostructures (sensors, multi-functional catalytic materials).
