Mackay and colleagues use polystyrene (PS) polymer chains to which a small percentage of a crosslinkable component is incorporated, and nanoparticles made from either the same polymer or the ...

To design and fabricate advanced polymer-based multilayer devices and ... when mixed with polystyrene (PS), analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and neutron reflectivity.

In a PS, fluorescent emitters called fluors are introduced into a solid polymer matrix. A charged particle that propagates through the material excites the polymer matrix: a non-radiative dipole ...
