Synthesis of Janus particles via kinetic control of phase separation in emulsion droplets.
A reaction-induced phase separation strategy in emulsion droplets has been developed to fabricate non-spherical Janus particles. The final morphology of the resulting Janus particles is controlled by a reaction sequence. These Janus particles are amphiphilic and show regio-selective adsorption orientation at oil/water interfaces.
متن کاملSuppressing rotational diffusion of Janus particles by surface modifications for directed thermophoretic motion
Here, the influence of various surface modifications on self-propelled motion of laser-heated goldcapped Janus particles is investigated. Wide-field laser heating of the gold hemisphere induces an asymmetric temperature profile around the particles resulting in thermophoretic self-propulsion [1]. Besides the desired directed translational motion also rotational diffusion of the Janus particles ...
متن کاملJanus Supraparticles by Induced Phase Separation of Nanoparticles in Droplets
Adv. Mater. 2009, 21, 1949–1953 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag G IO N Janus particles are non-centrosymmetric particles with two distinct sides. The two sides may differ in surface wettability or in optical, electrical, or magnetic properties. Depending upon the anisotropic properties, these particles can be used as emulsion stabilizers, analogous to surfactant molecules, optical probes for chemical, bi...
متن کاملJanus microgels produced from functional precursor polymers.
Micrometer-sized Janus particles of many kinds can be formed using droplet microfluidics, but in existing methods, the microfluidic templating is strongly coupled to the material synthesis, since droplet solidification occurs through rapid polymerization right after droplet formation. This circumstance limits independent control of the material properties and the morphology of the resultant par...
متن کاملMicrofluidic synthesis of multifunctional Janus particles for biomedical applications.
Multifunctional Janus particles have a variety of applications in a wide range of fields. However, to achieve many of these applications, high-throughput, low-cost techniques are needed to synthesize these particles with precise control of the various structural/physical/chemical properties. Microfluidics provides a unique platform to fabricate Janus particles using carefully controlled liquid ...
