    Abstract Image

    Printing techniques have been well established for large-scale production and have developed to be effective in controlling the morphology and thickness of the film. In this work, printing is employed to fabricate magnetic thin films composed of polystyrene coated maghemite nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3 NPs) and polystyrene-block-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PS-b-PMMA) diblock copolymer. By applying an external magnetic field during the print coating step, oriented structures with a high content of nanoscale magnetic particles are created. The morphology of the magnetic films and the arrangement of NPs within the polymer matrix are characterized with real and reciprocal space techniques. Due to the applied magnetic field, the magnetic NPs self-assemble into microscale sized wires with controlled widths and separation distances, endowing hybrid films with a characteristic magnetic anisotropy. At the nanoscale level, due to the PS coating, the NPs disperse as single particles at low NP concentrations. The NPs self-assemble into nanosized clusters inside the PS domains when the NP concentration increases. Due to a high loading of uniformly dispersed magnetic NPs across the whole printed film, a strong sensitivity to an external magnetic field is achieved. The enhanced superparamagnetic property of the printed films renders them promising candidate materials for future magnetic sensor applications.
