3D to 2D reorganization of silver-thiol nanostructures, triggered by solvent vapor annealing

Francesco Stellacci, Sergio Allegri

Metal-organic composites are of great interest for a wide range of applications. The control of their structure remains a challenge, one of the problems being a complex interplay of covalent and supramolecular interactions. This paper describes the self-as ...

Top-down design of magnonic crystals from bottom-up magnetic nanoparticles through protein arrays

Dirk Grundler

We show that chemical fixation enables top-down micro-machining of large periodic 3D arrays of protein-encapsulated magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) without loss of order. We machined 3D micro-cubes containing a superlattice of NPs by means of focused ion beam ...

Self-assembly and redox induced phase transfer of gold nanoparticles at the water-propylene carbonate interface

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov

Citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles were found to spontaneously self-assemble into a lustrous film at a bare water–propylene carbonate interface after vigorous shaking, due to the extremely low interfacial tension. The presence of an electron donor, tetr ...

Self-assembly of micro/nanosystems across scales and interfaces

Massimo Mastrangeli

Steady progress in understanding and implementation are establishing self-assembly as a versatile, parallel and scalable approach to the fabrication of transducers. In this contribution, I illustrate the principles and reach of self-assembly with three app ...

Assemblies of gold nanoparticles at liquid-liquid interfaces

Evgeny Smirnov

The interface between two immiscible liquids, i.e. oil and water, is an extremely attractive scaffold to self-assemble nanoparticles (NP) in arranged films. The liquid-liquid interfaces (LLIs) are defect-free and pristine by the nature, they are transparen ...

The sequence of a peptide programs its self-assembly and hence the expression of specific properties through non-covalent interactions. A large variety of peptide nanostructures has been designed employing different aspects of these non-covalent interactio ...

Contact angle and adsorption energies of nanoparticles at the air-liquid interface determined by neutron reflectivity and molecular dynamics

Francesco Stellacci, Javier Reguera Gomez, Mauro Moglianetti, Evgeniy Ponomarev

Understanding how nanomaterials interact with interfaces is essential to control their self-assembly as well as their optical, electronic, and catalytic properties. We present here an experimental approach based on neutron reflectivity (NR) that allows the ...

The use of solvent-free microfluidics to fine-tune the physical and chemical properties of chitosan nanoparticles for drug delivery is demonstrated. Nanoparticle self-assembly is driven by pH changes in a water environment, which increases biocompatibility ...

We present a new method to encapsulate functional liquids into sealed MEMS capsules by fluidic self-assembly. Self-assembly of 200 mu m SU-8 cargos and picoliter liquid co-encapsulation are driven by the interplay of global fluidic drag and short-range cap ...

IEEE2014

The success of nanoparticle-based devices will need reliable fabrication methods for well-defined, defect-free self-assembled structures of nanoparticles (NPs). NP self-assembly is a process governed by an interplay between many inter-particle interactions ...
