Self-alignment of silver nanoparticles in highly ordered 2D arrays
We have synthesized silver nanoparticles in the non-polar phase of non-aqueous microemulsions. The nanocrystals have been grown by reducing silver ions in the microemulsion cylindrical micelles formed by the reducing agent (ethylene glycol). By a careful deposit of the microemulsion phase on a substrate, the micelles align in a hexagonal geometry, thus forming a 2D array of parallel strings of ...
متن کاملHighly ordered 2D microgel arrays: compression versus self-assembly.
Monolayers of micro- and nanoparticles at fluid interfaces are a key component in a variety of applications, ranging from particle lithography to stabilizers in foams or emulsions. In addition to commonly used "hard" colloids, soft polymeric particles like microgels are attracting increasing attention due to their potential in the fabrication of tailored and responsive assemblies. In particular...
متن کاملOrdered arrays of size-selected oxide nanoparticles.
A bottom-up approach to produce a long-range ordered superlattice of monodisperse and isomorphic metal-oxide nanoparticles (NP) supported onto an oxide substrate is demonstrated. The synthetic strategy consists of self-assembling metallic NP on an ultrathin nanopatterned aluminum oxide template followed by a morphology-conserving oxidation process, and is exemplified in the case of Ni, but is g...
متن کاملOrdered arrays of nanoporous gold nanoparticles
A combination of a "top-down" approach (substrate-conformal imprint lithography) and two "bottom-up" approaches (dewetting and dealloying) enables fabrication of perfectly ordered 2-dimensional arrays of nanoporous gold nanoparticles. The dewetting of Au/Ag bilayers on the periodically prepatterned substrates leads to the interdiffusion of Au and Ag and the formation of an array of Au-Ag alloy ...
متن کاملHighly Ordered Arrays of Femtoliter Surface Droplets.
exploited to manipulate the average droplet size on homogeneous substrates. [ 25,26 ] In particular, it has been demonstrated that the average droplet size can be tuned through global modulation of the concentration gradient in the solutions to produce droplet heights on the order 0.01–1 μm (and hence the term “mesoscale droplets”) and droplet volumes in the 0.5–50 femtoliter (fL) range. [ 27 ]...
