Surfactant-free Colloidal Particles with Specific Binding Affinity
Colloidal particles with specific binding affinity are essential for in vivo and in vitro biosensing, targeted drug delivery, and micrometer-scale self-assembly. Key to these techniques are surface functionalizations that provide high affinities to specific target molecules. For stabilization in physiological environments, current particle coating methods rely on adsorbed surfactants. However, ...
متن کاملSurfactant mesophases mediated by colloidal particles
We have investigated effects of guest colloidal particles on the mesoscopic structures of a surfactant/water system by means of small angle neutron and x-ray scattering techniques. The addition of a small amount of colloidal particles between lamellar slits reduces the undulational fluctuations of lamellae and brings about a lamellar to micelle transition. On the other hand, on addition of coll...
متن کاملSolvent-free synthesis of Janus colloidal particles.
Taking advantage of the quick and efficient access of vapor to surfaces, a simple, solvent-free method is demonstrated to synthesize Janus colloidal particles in large quantity and with high efficiency. First, at the liquid-liquid interface of emulsified molten wax and water, untreated silica particles adsorb and are frozen in place when the wax solidifies. The exposed surfaces of the immobiliz...
متن کاملLateral optical binding between two colloidal particles
An optical binding force between two nearby colloidal particles trapped by two coherent laser beams is measured by phase-sensitive detection. The binding force is long-range and spatially oscillatory. For identical linearly-polarized incident beams, the oscillation period is equal to the optical wavelength. For mutually perpendicular polarizations, a new force appears with half-wavelength perio...
متن کاملColloquium: Toward living matter with colloidal particles
A fundamental unsolved problem is to understand the differences between inanimate matter and living matter. Although this question might be framed as philosophical, there are many fundamental and practical reasons to pursue the development of synthetic materials with the properties of living ones. There are three fundamental properties of living materials that we seek to reproduce: The ability ...
