Room temperature self-assembly of mixed nanoparticles into photonic structures.
Manufacturing complex composites and structures using incompatible materials is central to next-generation technologies. In photonics, silica offers passivity, low loss and robustness, making it the ideal material platform for optical transport. However, these properties partly stem from the high-temperature processing conditions necessary for silica waveguide fabrication, restricting the funct...
متن کاملRobust self-assembly using highly designable structures
Self-assembly creates structures through a statistical exploration of many possibilities. In some cases, these explorations give rise to a few highly designable structures that can be formed in exceptionally many ways. Using such structures for self-assembly tasks is a general approach to improving their reliability. This design principle can be applied to a variety of situations, including mol...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly of Polyhedral Hybrid Colloidal Particles
We have developed a new method to produce hybrid particles with polyhedral shapes in very high yield (liter quantities at up to 70% purity) using a combination of emulsion polymerization and inorganic surface chemistry. The procedure has been generalized to create complex geometries, including hybrid line segments, triangles, tetrahedra, octahedra, and more. The optical properties of these part...
متن کاملIon Channel Assembly: Creating Structures that Function
With advances in recombinant DNA, structural, and electrophysiological techniques, much progress has been made in understanding the structure and, in particular , the function of ion channels. Less progress has been made in resolving the cell biological events that guide the assembly and trafficking of these proteins and that have a major impact on both structure and function. The assembly of a...
متن کاملField-directed self-assembly with locking nanoparticles.
A reversible locking mechanism is established for the generation of anisotropic nanostructures by a magnetic field pulse in liquid matrices by balancing the thermal energy, short-range attractive and long-range repulsive forces, and dipole-dipole interactions using a specially tailored polymer shell of nanoparticles. The locking mechanism is used to precisely regulate the dimensions of self-ass...
