Abstract

A method for controlling the synthesis of a block copolymer containing at least two blocks, with at least one nonpolar block and at least one polar block, said method making it possible in particular to control the ratio between the blocks and the molecular weight of each of the blocks, said copolymer being a block copolymer intended to be used as a mask in a method of nanolithography by direct self-assembly (DSA), said control being achieved by semicontinuous anionic polymerization in an aprotic nonpolar medium.
