Acknowledgements

First and foremost, I would like to gratefully and sincerely thank my supervisor, Prof. Dr.
Rainer Jordan, for giving me the opportunity to work on such an exciting project. He
introduced me to the field of polymer and interface science, broadened my perspective and
knowledge, and gave me confidence to apply myself in my graduate study. I am deeply
impressed by his wide knowledge, patient guidance as well as the professional attitude
towards scientific work. When I made the decision to stay in Munich for the last few months
of my Ph.D. study, he also showed his kind understanding of it which has been of great
importance to me. Without his constant support, guidance and encouragement this dissertation
would not have been possible.
I would also like to express my deep gratitude to Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Bernhard Rieger for
giving me the opportunity to work at the Wacker-Lehrstuhl fü r Makromolekulare Chemie.
His constructive comments and scientific work style continually impressed me and have been
of great value for my work. I wish to sincerely thank Prof. Dr. -Ing. Oskar Nuyken, whose
generous supports and encouragement always inspired me and became a large driving force
for the present study. I gratefully thank Dr. Carsten Troll and Dr. -Ing. Heidi Samarian for
their supports both technically and scientifically.
A warm and heartfelt thank goes to Dr. Marin Steenackers and Dr. Robert Luxenhofer for
their fruitful cooperation, enlightening discussion and most importantly their warm friendship
throughout my Ph.D. study. Marin taught me the valuable laboratory techniques, and put time
and energy into correcting this dissertation. „Luxi‟ always helped me with suggestion on both
my work and my life, and offered me the “warmest hotel” in Dresden. Words are not
sufficient enough to express all my appreciation for their countless help.
I am grateful to Dr. Tilo Pompe from Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden for
performing the protein adsorption and cell adhesion experiments, and Dr. Schilp Sö ren from
Universitä t Heidelberg for offering the surfaces. Without these excellent cooperations, this
dissertation would not have been completed.
Many thanks to Naï ma Aurelia Hutter for her precise English-German translation, as well as
her kind help during my graduate study. At the same time, I would like to thank Anita Schulz
and Hans Koss for their kind assistance in the lab work.
I would like to give my special thank to my labmates Dr. Stephan Huber, Dr. Tianzhu Zhang,
Amir Doroodian, and Khalifah Salmeia for the harmonious lab atmosphere.
Thanks go to all the other Makros, Dr. Martin Schneider, Andreas Feigl, Dr. Liyi Chen,

Hochwarter, Robert Reichardt, Maximilian Lehenmeier, Konrad Hindelang, Meifang Yin,
Tobias Diesner, Abdussalam Qaroush, Manfred Gunesch, Anna Lennartson, as well as other
new comers for making my stay such a pleasant and great experience. I sincerely appreciate
all the advices and skills that I have picked up in this period of time.
I would like to thank my parents and my friends for their love and help.
Finally, I would like to give my last but unique thank to my wife Hang for her endless love,
termless sacrifice and patience.
