Self-assembled MmsF proteinosomes control magnetite nanoparticle formation in vitro.
Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize highly uniform intracellular magnetite nanoparticles through the action of several key biomineralization proteins. These proteins are present in a unique lipid-bound organelle (the magnetosome) that functions as a nanosized reactor in which the particle is formed. A master regulator protein of nanoparticle formation, magnetosome membrane specific F (MmsF), was ...
متن کاملSelf-assembled nanoparticle antiglare coatings.
Here we report a simple and scalable bottom-up technology for assembling close-packed nanoparticle monolayers on both sides of a glass substrate as high-quality antiglare coatings. Optical measurements show that monolayer coatings consisting of 110 nm silica nanoparticles can significantly reduce optical reflectance and enhance specular transmittance of the glass substrate for a broad range of ...
متن کاملSelf-assembled nanoparticle-stabilized photocatalytic reactors.
The efficiency of nanostructured photocatalysts continues to improve at an impressive pace and is closing in on those needed for commercial applications; however, present-day reactor strategies used to deploy these nanostructures fail to achieve the sufficient areas (>1 m(2)) needed for solar application. Here we report the Self-assembled Nanoparticle-stabilized Photocatalytic Reactor (SNPR), a...
متن کاملMechanism of nanoparticle formation in self-assembled colloidal templates: population balance model and Monte Carlo simulation.
Modeling the nanoparticle formation mechanism in water-in-oil microemulsion, a self-assembled colloidal template, has been addressed in this paper by two formalisms: the deterministic population balance equation (PBE) model and stochastic Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. These are based on time-scale analysis of elementary events consisting of reactant mass transport, solid solubilization, reaction...
متن کاملSelf-assembled island formation in heteroepitaxial growth
We investigate island formation during heteroepitaxial growth using an atomistic model that incorporates deposition, activated diffusion and stress relaxation. For high misfit the system naturally evolves into a state characterized by a narrow island size distribution. The simulations indicate the existence of a strain assisted kinetic mechanism responsible for the self-assembling process, invo...
