Factors Affecting the Stability of Polymer Thin Films

4 Factors Affecting the Stability of Polymer Thin Films 

2 Thin Film As already discussed in the previous section, the thickness of a thin film has a critical influence on the stability of the film and also the mechanism of dewetting. We will not discuss more about it here but one thing should 

3 Substrate The properties of interface between polymer thin film and subsfrafe have a greaf impact on the 

Furthermore, the chemical- or physical-patterned substrate-induced dewetting has been proved to be a convenient and effective way to pattern surface on a micro/nanometer scale without a lithographic process. About this topic, we draw your attention to a review article [34].
