We use self-consistent field theory to calculate the energy of defect formation in cylinder-forming diblock copolymers in laterally confining thin channels. We focus on two isolated defects; dislocations and disclinations and explore a wide range of polymer and channel characteristics. Our findings suggest appropriate conditions for the design of optimized graphoepitaxial processes; where defects are limited to very low concentrations. Using the string method; we also investigate the energy barriers and kinetic pathways of the transition from defective to perfect states. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals; Inc;
