O autorze

Prof. Dr. Chuanliang Feng received Doctor Degree from University of Twente (the Netherlands) in 2005. After this, he was awarded Max-Planck Society Scholarship to work at Max-Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz. In Aug. 2009, he moved to Shanghai Jiao Tong University as a full professor in School of Material Sciences and Technology. He was supported by National High-Level Talents Special Support Plan (Ten Thousand Plan)，New Century Excellent Talents in University, and Professor of Special Appointment (Eastern Scholar) at Shanghai Institutions of Higher Learning. His research mainly focuses on chiral biomaterials, polymeric materials, supramolecular hydrogels. Important topics are synthesis and characterization of chiral supramolecular hydrogels and biomimetic materials as well as applications of biomaterials in Regenerative Medicine. He has published more than 120 papers, including Acc. Chem. Res., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Adv. Mater. and so on. He has more than 20 patents. He is the guest editor of European Polymer Journal, and editorial member of Advance Hybrid and Composite Materials. Recently, he has been awarded Richard Robert Ernst during PolyChar 2019 international conference due to his innovation contribution on supramolecular chemistry.

Dr. Xiaoqiu Dou received her B.Sc. degree in Polymeric Materials and Engineering from Ocean University of China in 2009 and her Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Shanghai Jiaotong University in 2015. From October 2015 to March 2019, she worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Chemistry and Biology at the University of Siegen (Siegen, Germany) and was awarded the Humboldt Research Fellowship for postdoctoral researchers. Since September 2019, she works as Assistant Professor of Shanghai Jiaotong University. Her research interests include development of stimuli-responsive and chiral supramolecular hydrogels for application in biomedical and biotechnology fields.

Yibin Xu received his Master degree in Ocean Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2004. He is currently the Deputy Secretary of the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) and Secretary-General of Microstructure Photography Competition for Chinese University Students. As the Director of Students & Academics Affairs Office and undergraduate tutor, he has rich management experience in students training of materials subject. He was awarded the second prize of SJTU Teaching Achievement Award in 2018.

This book introduces readers to interfacial reactions in confinement on stimuli-responsive homopolymer and diblock copolymer films. It also includes investigations concerning the immobilization of (bio)molecules and the fabrication of biomolecular patterns by reactive microcontact printing on these reactive polymer films. In turn, the book takes advantage of the microphase separation of diblock copolymer films to study the fabrication of nanopatterns, which could contribute to the future development of a model system that allows us to area-selectively deposit and address (bio)molecules. Given its scope, the book broadens readers’ perspective on the microfabrication of stimuli-responsive polymers.
