The use of nanomaterials has been shown to be promising in potential applications such as magnetic storage devices, nano-optical devices and sensors, amongst others. Such applications require the disposition of nanoparticles, of a wide variety of materials ...
Nanoscaled particles showing superparamagnetic behavior have been intensively studied in the past years for various applications. Nevertheless, the lack of well-defined particles remains an important problem. One of the major challenges is still the large- ...
Organisation and heterogeneous photoreactivity of water-soluble zinc meso-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (ZnTPPC) were investigated at polarisable liquid / liquid interfaces by systematically varying the organic phase solvent. The remarkable affinity ...
The directed assembly of nanoparticles and nanoscale materials onto specific locations of a surface is one of the major challenges in nanotechnology. Here we present a simple and scalable method and model for the assembly of nanoparticles in between electr ...
This thesis describes some of three years'work carried at the Centre Suisse d'Electronique et de Microtechnique (Neuchâtel, Switzerland) under the supervision of Dr. Martha Liley and in collaboration with Prof. Horst Vogel of the Ecole Polytechnique Fédéra ...
Many potential applications in nanotechnology require virtually defect-free arrays of nanometre-scale particles over large areas. Guided self-assembly of colloidal particles on patterned templates has been shown to produce ordered arrays of colloidal parti ...
The controlled self-assembly of thiol stabilized gold nanocrystals in a mediating solvent and confined within mesoporous alumina was probed in situ with small angle x-ray scattering. The evolution of the self-assembly process was controlled reversibly via ...
Neoclassical transport and a particle confinement are analysed for three 3-D reactor designs-the QAS3, the ST/sphellamak hybrid and the sphellamak-using the VENUS code. It is observed that neither the QAS3 nor the ST/sphellamak is truly aquasi-axisymmetric ...
The voltage-induced assembly of mercaptosuccinic acid-stabilized Au nanoparticles of 1.5 ± 0.4 nm diameter is investigated at the polarizable water|1,2-dichloroethane interface. Admittance measurements and quasi-elastic laser scattering (QELS) studies reve ...
The understanding of material self-assembling and self-organization mechanisms, at mesoscale, is crucial for nanotechnologies development. Such structures, hierarchically organized in superlattices or colloïdal crystals, are observed in inorganic or organo ...
