Abstract
Polymer–inorganic hybrid nanoparticles were prepared through radical photo‐polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by N,N‐diethyldithiocarbamyl surface functionalized silica nanoparticles under UV irradiation at ambient temperature. IR analysis and UV spectroscopy confirmed the occurrence of Et~2~NCS~2~—end groups on the resulting poly(methyl methacrylate), and the morphology of these hybrid nanoparticles was observed directly by means of tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM).

Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (si-ATRP) technique was successfully employed to modify Ni nanoparticles with polymer shells. ATRP initiators were covalently bonded onto Ni nanoparticle surfaces by a combination of ligand exchange and condensation reactions. Various kinds of p
Semiconductor-polymer hybrids prepared by incorporating polymer brushes on semiconductor substrates have attracted considerable attention in recent years. The hybrids have unique surface and interface properties, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and allow the fabrication of nanopatterns. [11][12][13]
## Abstract **Summary:** We investigated the formation of thermoresponsive gold nanoparticle/poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide) (AuNP/PNIPAAm) core/shell hybrid structures by surface‐initiated, atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP) in aqueous media and the effect of cross‐linking on the therm
