Self-assembled particle monolayers on polyelectrolyte multilayers: particle size effects on formation, structure, and optical properties
نویسندگان
چکیده
Monolayers of charged polystyrene latex particles ranging in size from 100 nm to 10 m were deposited on oppositely charged polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) by electrostatic interactions and capillary forces. Ultrathin PEMs (∼30 nm) formed on a glass slide provided an e p i a l s c a ©

Selective depositions on polyelectrolyte multilayers: self-assembled monolayers of m-dPEG acid as molecular template.
This paper describes the fabrication of self-assembled monolayer (SAM) patterns of m-d-poly(ethylene glycol) (m-dPEG) acid molecules onto polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs). The patterned SAMs on PEMs were created by ionic interactions using microcontact printing (microCP) technique. The created m-dPEG acid monolayer patterns on PEMs act as resistive templates, and thus further depositions of c...
متن کاملFabrication and characterization of a multilayered optical tissue model with embedded scattering microspheres in polymeric materials
We report on a novel fabrication approach to build multilayered optical tissue phantoms that serve as independently validated test targets for axial resolution and contrast in scattering measurements by depth-resolving optical coherent tomography (OCT) with general applicability to a variety of three-dimensional optical sectioning platforms. We implement a combinatorial bottom-up approach to pr...
متن کاملSelf-assembled multilayers of gold nanoparticles: nitrate-induced rectification of quantized capacitance charging and effects of alkaline (earth) ions in aqueous solutions.
Gold nanoparticle multilayers were self-assembled onto an electrode surface by using a dipping method. The particle assemblies exhibited quantized capacitance charging characteristics in aqueous media that were rectified by hydrophobic anions such as PF6-, BF4- and ClO4-, similar to the behavior with the monolayer counterparts. More interestingly, even in the presence of less hydrophobic anions...
متن کاملFracture and failure of nanoparticle monolayers and multilayers.
We present an experimental investigation of fracture in self-assembled gold nanoparticle mono- and multilayers attached to elastomer substrates and subjected to tensile stress. Imaging the fracture patterns down to the scale of single particles provides detailed information about the crack width distribution and allows us to compare the scaling of the average crack spacing as a function of stra...
متن کاملUltrasonic-assisted solvothermal synthesis of self-assembled Copper Ferrite nanoparticles
The aim of this work was to characterize copper ferrite nanoparticles synthesized via solvothermal method and to investigate the effects of ultrasonic waves on the synthesis efficiency. Crystal structure, functional groups, microstructure, particle size, magnetic properties, specific surface area, porosity distribution and photocatalytic activity of the synthesized nanoparticles were also inves...
