Self-assembly of like-charged nanoparticles into microscopic crystals.
Like-charged nanoparticles, NPs, can assemble in water into large, faceted crystals, each made of several million particles. These NPs are functionalized with mixed monolayers comprising ligands terminating in carboxylic acid group ligands as well as positively charged quaternary ammonium ligands. The latter groups give rise to electrostatic interparticle repulsions which partly offset the hydr...
متن کاملLinker-Mediated Self-Assembly Dynamics of Charged Nanoparticles.
Using in situ liquid cell transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we visualized a stepwise self-assembly of surfactant-coated and hydrated gold nanoparticles (NPs) into linear chains or branched networks. The NP binding is facilitated by linker molecules, ethylenediammonium, which form hydrogen bonds with surfactant molecules of neighboring NPs. The observed spacing between bound neighboring NP...
متن کاملOn the conversion of ordinary voronoi diagrams into laguerre diagrams
We present some geometric relationships between the ordinary Voronoi diagram, and the Voronoi diagram in the Laguerre geometry. We derive from these properties an algorithm for the conversion of ordinary Voronoi diagrams into Voronoi diagrams in the Laguerre geometry.
متن کاملDipolar driven spontaneous self assembly of superparamagnetic Co nanoparticles into micrometric rice-grain like structures.
Superparamagnetic single crystal single domain Co nanoparticles of 6 nm in diameter evaporated onto highly pyrolytic oriented graphite spontaneously self-assemble into super structures with an elongated shape. These structures have been studied by optical and scanning electron microscopies, atomic and magnetic force microscopy, electron dispersive X-ray analysis, and SQUID magnetometry. We prop...
متن کاملOriented assembly of anisotropic nanoparticles into frame-like superstructures
It is fascinating but challenging for nanoscientists to organize nanoparticles (NPs) into ordered architectures just as it is for chemists to manipulate atoms and molecules to form functional molecules and supramolecules. We explore a strategy to assemble anisotropic NPs into open frame-like superstructures via oriented attachment (OA), experimentally realizing a nanoscale analog to the bonding...
