The self-assembly of the linear rod-coil multiblock copolymers is studied by applying self-consistent-field lattice techniques in a three-dimensional （3D） space. Compared to the copolymer with one rod, the copolymer with more rods （mrod≥ 2） exhibits rich order-order phase transitions with increasing temperature, where the ordered morphology changes from strips to perforated lamellae and finally to lamellae. In addition, taking the copolymer with mrod = 2 as a representative, we fiarther study the effects of the volume fractions of the rods, the spacer coils and the end coils on the phase behaviors respectively, by which the detailed self-assembled mechanism of the linear rod-coil multiblock copolymers is revealed. Our results are expected to provide guidance for the design of the rod-coil materials.
The synthesis of graphene-semiconductor nanocomposites has attracted increasing attention due to their interesting optoelectronic properties.However the synthesis of such nanocomposites,with decorated particles well dispersed on graphene,is still a great challenge.This work reports a facile,one-step,solvothermal method for the synthesis of graphene-CdS and graphene-ZnS quantum dot nanocomposites directly from graphene oxide,with CdS and ZnS very well dispersed on the graphene nanosheets.Photoluminescence measurements showed that the integration of CdS and ZnS with graphene significantly decreases their photoluminescence.Transient photovoltage studies revealed that the graphene-CdS nanocomposite exhibits a very unexpected strong positive photovoltaic response,while separate samples of graphene and CdS quantum dots(QDs)of a similar size do not show any photovoltaic response.
