AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
At present, organic molecules are among the best candidate "building blocks" for the construction of self-assembling nanoscale devices based on metal substrates. Control of the formation of specific patterns In the submonolayer regime is usually achieved b ...
A simple approach is described to fabricate reversible, thermally- and optically responsive actuators utilizing composites of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) loaded with single-walled carbon nanotubes. With nanotube loading at concentrations of 0.75 m ...
Uranium building blocks: Two new uranium cluster topologies are obtained from the stoichiometric hydrolysis of low-valent uranium in non-aqueous media (see picture). The organic base TMEDA directs the self-assembly process towards the formation of a nanosi ...
Self-assembly is the autonomous organization of components into patterns or structures without human intervention. At the molecular level, self-assembly usually involves non-covalent interactions of various natures, such as van der Waals, electrostatic and ...
Since the performance of a system of interacting peers depends strongly on their individual contributions, the ratio between their provided and consumed resources should be set in line with the social welfare improvement, without relying on a central coord ...
This paper reports on the effective use of capillary self-alignment for low-cost and time-efficient assembly of heterogeneous foil components into a smart electronic identification label. Particularly, we demonstrate the accurate (better than 50 μm) alignm ...
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation technique was employed to investigate the effect of degree of sulfonation (DS) on structural and dynamical characteristics of sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) membranes at different temperatures. MD Simulation ...
In order to produce materials with tailored structures and functions via supramolecular self-assembly of molecular precursors in a predictable fashion, it is necessary to develop 'supramolecular methods' based on structurally simple 'supramolecular synthon ...
This chapter reviews the capillary self-assembly (SA) of heterogeneous systems composed by milli- to micrometer-sized building blocks. The representative, though not exhaustive, examples of microsystems presented belong to four main classes: two-dimensiona ...
The self-assembly properties of the proximal p-tert-butylcalix[4]dihydroquinone compound have been studied to investigate the role played by crystallization conditions in driving the formation of a previously reported cubic porous framework. In chloroform ...
