The present application is also directed to a polymer membrane comprising said block copolymer. The polymer membrane can be used for various purposes, for example, various electronic or electronic devices, a process of forming the pattern, a recording medium such as a magnetic storage medium, a flash memory, or a biosensor.

In one example, the block copolymer in the polymer membrane may be self-assembled to implement a cyclic structure including a sphere, a cylinder, a gyroid or a lamellar, .

For example, within the block of the first or second block or another block covalently bonded thereto, the other segment in the block copolymer may form a regular structure such as a lamellar shape or a cylinder shape.

The present application also relates to a method for forming a polymer film using the block copolymer. The method may include forming a polymer membrane including the block copolymer on a substrate in a self-assembled state. For example, the method may include forming a layer of the block copolymer or a coating liquid in which the block copolymer is diluted with a suitable solvent on the substrate by applying or the like, and if necessary, aging or heat-treating the layer.

The aging or heat treatment may be performed based on, for example, the phase transition temperature or the glass transition temperature of the block copolymer, and may be performed at, for example, the glass transition temperature or a temperature higher than the phase transition temperature. The time at which this heat treatment is performed is not particularly limited, and can be performed within a range of, for example, about 1 minute to 72 hours, but this can be changed if necessary. The heat treatment temperature of the polymer thin film may be, for example, about 100 ° C to 250 ° C, but may be changed in consideration of the block copolymer to be used.

The formed layer may be solvent aged for about 1 minute to 72 hours in a non-polar solvent and / or a polar solvent at room temperature in another example.

The present application also relates to a method of pattern formation. The above method is a method for selectively removing the first or second block of the block copolymer in a laminate having a substrate and a polymer film formed on the surface of the substrate and self-assembled with the block copolymer . ≪ / RTI > The method may be a method of forming a pattern on the substrate. For example, the method may include forming a polymeric film comprising the block copolymer on a substrate, selectively removing one or more blocks of the block copolymer present in the film, and then etching the substrate . In this way, it is possible to form, for example, a nanoscale fine pattern. In addition, various patterns such as nano-rods, nano-holes, and the like can be formed through the above-described method depending on the type of the block copolymer in the polymer film. If necessary, the block copolymer may be mixed with another copolymer or homopolymer for pattern formation. The type of the substrate to be applied to this method is not particularly limited and may be selected as required. For example, silicon oxide or the like may be applied.

For example, the method can form a nanoscale pattern of silicon oxide that exhibits a high aspect ratio. For example, the polymer film is formed on silicon oxide, and one block of the block copolymer is selectively removed while the block copolymer in the polymer film forms a predetermined structure. Thereafter, the silicon oxide is removed in various ways, for example, , Reactive ion etching, or the like to form various patterns including patterns of nano-rods or nano holes. In addition, it is possible to realize a nano pattern having a large aspect ratio through such a method.

For example, the pattern can be implemented in a scale of several tens of nanometers, and such a pattern can be utilized for various purposes including, for example, a next-generation information electronic magnetic recording medium and the like.

For example, according to the above method, a pattern in which nanostructures having a width of about 3 nm to 40 nm, for example, nanowires are arranged at intervals of about 6 nm to 80 nm, can be formed. In another example, it is possible to implement a structure in which the width is about 3 nm to 40 nm, for example, nanoholes having a diameter of about 6 nm to 80 nm are formed.

Also, in the above structure, the nanowires and nano holes can have a large aspect ratio.

The method of selectively removing one block of the block copolymer in the above method is not particularly limited. For example, a method of removing a relatively soft block by irradiating an appropriate electromagnetic wave, for example, ultraviolet light, Can be used. In this case, the ultraviolet ray irradiation conditions are determined depending on the type of the block of the block copolymer, and can be performed, for example, by irradiating ultraviolet light having a wavelength of about 254 nm for 1 minute to 60 minutes.

In addition, the ultraviolet irradiation may be followed by a step of treating the polymer membrane with an acid or the like to further remove the segment decomposed by ultraviolet rays.

The step of selectively etching the substrate using the polymer film having the removed block as a mask is not particularly limited. For example, the step of etching the substrate may be performed by a reactive ion etching step using CF 4 / Ar ions or the like. A step of removing the polymer membrane from the substrate by an oxygen plasma treatment or the like can also be performed.

The present application may provide block copolymers and uses thereof. The block copolymer of the present application has excellent self-assembling properties or phase separation characteristics and can be freely given various functions as required
