Stoichiometric control of DNA-grafted colloid self-assembly.
There has been considerable interest in understanding the self-assembly of DNA-grafted nanoparticles into different crystal structures, e.g., CsCl, AlB2, and Cr3Si. Although there are important exceptions, a generally accepted view is that the right stoichiometry of the two building block colloids needs to be mixed to form the desired crystal structure. To incisively probe this issue, we combin...
متن کاملPatterned colloid assembly by grafted photochromic polymer layers.
Quartz surfaces and colloidal silica particles were derivatized with a poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymer containing spirobenzopyran (SP) photochromic molecules in the pendant groups at a concentration of 20 mol %. Two-photon near-IR excitation (approximately 780 nm) was then used to create chemically distinct patterns on the modified surfaces through a photochromic process of SP transformatio...
متن کاملDNA driven self-assembly of micron-sized rods using DNA-grafted bacteriophage fd virions.
We have functionalized the sides of fd bacteriophage virions with oligonucleotides to induce DNA hybridization driven self-assembly of high aspect ratio filamentous particles. Potential impacts of this new structure range from an entirely new building block in DNA origami structures, inclusion of virions in DNA nanostructures and nanomachines, to a new means of adding thermotropic control to ly...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of Carbon Vacancies in Sub-stoichiometric ZrC1−x
Sub-stoichiometric interstitial compounds, including binary transition metal carbides (MC(1-x)), maintain structural stability even if they accommodate abundant anion vacancies. This unique character endows them with variable-composition, diverse-configuration and controllable-performance through composition and structure design. Herein, the evolution of carbon vacancy (VC) configuration in sub...
متن کاملModeling the anisotropic self-assembly of spherical polymer-grafted nanoparticles.
Recent experimental results demonstrated that polymer grafted nanoparticles in solvents display self-assembly behavior similar to the microphase separation of block copolymers and other amphiphiles. We present a mean-field theory and complementary computer simulations to shed light on the parametric underpinnings of the experimental observations. Our theory suggests that such self-assembled str...
