Chemistry Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Physical Sciences Science & Technology Science & Technology - Other Topics
Polymer single crystals have been extensively studied since 1957. They are typically used as model systems to determine crystalline structures, or as markers to investigate the crystallization process. In this chapter, we review the recent progresses on using nanoparticle-decorated polymer single crystals as nanoscale materials. We show that the unique quasi-two dimensional features of the polymer single crystals, combining with the long chain nature of polymers, can lead to an abundance of functional materials for numerous applications.
