  • Patent number: 9845407
    Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a polymer electret. The method of manufacturing a polymer electrets includes forming a polymer thin film, which includes a block copolymer (BCP) having two or more polymer chains covalently bonded together; forming a nano-structure of the BCP in which a first block formed by first polymer chains that self-assemble together and a second block formed by second polymer chains that self-assemble together are micro-phase-separated, by performing an annealing process on the polymer thin film; forming a porous polymer film with a nano-pore by selectively removing one of the first block and the second block; and charging the porous polymer film.

  • Patent number: 9341759
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a polarizer may include forming a first barrier and a second barrier on a surface of a metal layer. The method may further include providing a copolymer layer between the first barrier and the second barrier. The method may further include processing the copolymer layer to form a processed polymer layer that includes first-polymer portions and second-polymer portions that are alternately disposed. The method may further include removing the second-polymer portions from the processed polymer layer to form polymer members that are spaced from each other. The method may further include etching the metal layer, using at least the polymer members, the first barrier, and the second barrier as a mask, to form a plurality of first-type wires and a plurality of second-type wires.
