This session is dedicated to investigations of the structure, morphology, and self-assembly of block copolymer based materials in thin films. These materials show promise in a wide variety of applications including lithography, separation membranes, and photonics. Topics of interest include thermodynamics, dynamical phenomena, processing conditions, new chain architectures, applications, etc. Theoretical, computational, and experimental papers are welcome. ***Note to faculty candidates: please include a note to the session chair during submission to alert them to your status*** +++Note: this session will be sorted jointly with Nanostructured Polymer Films. Authors may submit to either session.+++
