Abstract
Patterning, stability, and dispersion of the semiconductor quantum dots (scQDs) are three issues strictly interconnected for successful device manufacturing. Recently, several authors adopted direct optical patterning (DOP) as a step forward in photolithography to position the scQDs in a selected area. However, the chemistry behind the stability, dispersion, and patterning has to be carefully integrated to obtain a functional commercial device. This review describes different chemical strategies suitable to stabilize the scQDs both at a single level and as an ensemble. Special attention is paid to those strategies compatible with direct optical patterning (DOP). With the same purpose, the scQDs' dispersion in a matrix was described in terms of the scQD surface ligands' interactions with the matrix itself. The chemical processes behind the DOP are illustrated and discussed for five different approaches, all together considering stability, dispersion, and the patterning itself of the scQDs.

Abstract
Photoluminescent quantum dots (QDs) are a prominent example of nanomaterials used in practical applications, especially in light-emitting and light-converting devices. Most of the current applications of QDs require formation of thin films or their incorporation in solid matrices. The choice of an appropriate host material capable of preventing QDs from degradation and developing a process of uniform incorporation of QDs in the matrix have become essential scientific and technological challenges. In this work, we developed a method of uniform incorporation of Cu-Zn-In-S (CZIS) QDs into a highly protective cross-linked polyisobutylene (PIB) matrix with high chemical resistance and low gas permeability. Our approach involves the synthesis of a methacrylate-terminated three-arm star-shaped PIB oligomeric precursor capable of quick formation of a robust 3D polymer network upon exposure to UV-light, as well as the design of a special ligand introducing short PIB chains onto the surface of the QDs, thus providing compatibility with the matrix. The obtained cross-linked QDs-in-polymer composites underwent a complex photostability test in air and under vacuum as well as a chemical stability test. These tests found that CZIS QDs in a cross-linked PIB matrix demonstrated excellent photo- and chemical stability when compared to identical QDs in widely used polyacrylate-based matrices. These results make the composites developed excellent materials for the fabrication of robust, stable and durable transparent light conversion layers.

Abstract
Functionalization of polyolefins, in particular polyisobutylene, remains a relatively unexplored application for the Michael reaction. This work evaluates the potential of polyisobutylene acrylate (PIBA) chain-end modification via organocatalyzed thiol-Michael and aza-Michael additions. A series of chain-end functional polyisobutylene oligomers are prepared using "click" reactions of thiols or amines to PIBA in the presence of 0.02 equivalents of organocatalyst. Reaction kinetics and chain-end transformations are monitored using NMR spectroscopy and the macromolecular products are characterized by size exclusion chromatography. Further potential of this synthetic strategy is illustrated by thiol-Michael addition of thiols formed in situ via nucleophilic thiolactone ring opening. The obtained results provide an efficient method for the preparation of functional polyisobutylene oligomers that can be utilized in a broad range of potential applications.
