The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Directed self-assembly of block copolymers for use in bit patterned media fabrication (2013, background): “Many conventional servo pattern features do not correspond to the types of periodic features most easily formed by the free energy minimization process that orders BCPs [102].”
Linear and non-linear triblock terpolymers. Synthesis, self-assembly in selective solvents and in bulk (2005, background): “Cubic structures, however, have demonstrated better mechanical properties from cylinders and lamellae leading to potential applications of increased interest [57].”
Fluctuation microscopy: a probe of medium range order (2005, background): “Ordering in polymers is a subject of great interest [122].”
Dual/heterofunctional initiators for the combination of mechanistically distinct polymerization techniques (2006, background): “Extensive reviews about mechanism transformation have been published [11–16], and this information was recently updated by Hadjichristidis et al.”
Polymers and carbon nanotubes : dimensionality, interactions and nanotechnology (2005, background): “Block copolymers are comprised of covalently bonded chemically distinct and often mutually incompatible moieties (designated A–B and A–B–A for diblocks and tri-blocks, respectively) [76].”
