Diblock copolymer (DBC) thin films that form periodic nanostructures are appropriate scaffolds for magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) and have potential for a variety of applications such as highly functional magnetic sensors and in high-density magnetic data storage. In this investigation, ultra-high molecular weight PS-b-PMMA films are used as templates for both ferrimagnetic magnetite NP and ferromagnetic Ni NPs. The thin films, containing up to 6 wt% NPs, are fabricated by a slot-die coating technique and the morphological evolution of the films during the deposition and drying process is monitored in situ with grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS). The dry thin films are subjected to solvent vapor annealing and ordered nanostructured hybrid films are obtained. Using a SQUID magnetometer, the resulting magnetic properties are measured.
