Solvent Vapor Annealing of Block Polymer Thin Films
Abstract
This Perspective provides a critical analysis of the current knowledge concerning solvent vapor annealing (SVA) of block polymer thin films. Herein, we identify key challenges that will be important to overcome for future development of SVA as a practical, reliable, and universal technique for the valorization of block polymer thin films in a wide range of technologies. The Perspective includes a brief background on thin film block polymer self-assembly, a historical account of the SVA technique, an overview of the SVA fundamentals that are necessary to develop a more comprehensive picture of the overall process, and summaries of relevant and important contributions from the recent literature. We also offer our outlook on SVA and suggest important future directions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
