Chemical synthesis and applications of advanced polymer materials from the viewpoint of their supramolecular chemistry. Intramolecular and intermolecular interactions (conformation, aggregation, microphase segregation), hierarchical structure formation and their use in applications (e.g., nanostructured materials via self-assembly, polymers in optoelectronics, shape-memory polymers).

This course will introduce students to the structural requirements of charge transport in organic materials as well as synthetic methods for their preparation.
