Directed self-assembly of field-responsive fluids in confined geometries†

We present an investigation into the important physical principles associated with the self-assembly of magnetorheological (MR) fluids in the microfluidic setting. We concentrate on the role of channel topology in influencing the resulting microstructure. In particular, using Brownian dynamics simulations, we show how a variety of geometrically-simple confining microchannels can be used to stro...

Field-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...

Electric-Field-Directed Self-Assembly of Active Enzyme-Nanoparticle Structures

A method is presented for the electric-field-directed self-assembly of higher-order structures composed of alternating layers of biotin nanoparticles and streptavidin-/avidin-conjugated enzymes carried out on a microelectrode array device. Enzymes included in the study were glucose oxidase (GOx), horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and alkaline phosphatase (AP); all of which could be used to form a l...

Surface-Confined Molecular Self-Assembly

The design and fabrication of nanometer-sized entities of defined structure on the nanometer scale is a challenge hardly achievable by large-scale top-down procedures. In particular, alternative techniques are needed to structure surfaces at very small length scales. In nanotechnology the process of self-assembly has become a potent method which allows to vanquish these difficulties. Self-assem...

Polymer chains in confined geometries: massive field theory approach.

The massive field theory approach in fixed space dimensions d<4 is applied to investigate a dilute solution of long-flexible polymer chains in a good solvent between two parallel repulsive walls, two inert walls, and for the mixed case of one inert and one repulsive wall. The well-known correspondence between the field theoretical phi4 O(n) -vector model in the limit n-->0 and the behavior of l...
