2016 journal article

Light-Induced Reversible Change of Roughness and Thickness of Photosensitive Polymer Brushes

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES, 8(29), 19175–19184.

By: A. Kopyshev*, C. Galvin n, R. Patil n, J. Genzer n , N. Lomadze *, D. Feldmann *, J. Zakrevski*, S. Santer *

author keywords: photosensitive brushes; azobenzene containing surfactants; light driven reversible change of surface topography and thickness; domain memory in polymer brushes; orientation of azobenzenes in polymer brushes
TL;DR: The photomechanical function of the dry polymer brush was found to be reversible with repeated irradiation cycles and requires only a few seconds for switching, and the roughness of the brush also changes reversibly between a few Angstroms and several nanometers. (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

Swelling of Polyelectrolyte and Polyzwitterion Brushes by Humid Vapors

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY, 136(36), 12737–12745.

By: C. Galvin n, M. Dimitriou *, S. Satija* & J. Genzer n 

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that swelling behavior of polyelectrolyte and polyzwitterion brushes derived from poly(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate in water vapor stems from the formation of inter- and intramolecular zwitterionic complexes. (via Semantic Scholar)

2013 journal article

Opto-Mechanical Scission of Polymer Chains in Photosensitive Diblock-Copolymer Brushes

LANGMUIR, 29(45), 13967–13974.

By: A. Kopyshev*, C. Galvin n, J. Genzer n , N. Lomadze * & S. Santer *

TL;DR: The results indicate that this process may be explained by employing classical continuum fracture mechanics, which might be important for tailoring the phenomenon for applying it to poststructuring of polymer brushes. (via Semantic Scholar)
