چکیده

Lysine-capped gold nanoparticles can be electrostatically assembled on the surface of Bacillus cerius, a Gram-Positive bacterium. The conductivity of the “gold-plated” bacteria assembly immobilized between electrodes is a function of the humidity experienced by the nanoparticles.

Approaching Programmable Self-Assembly from Nanoparticle-Based Devices to Integrated Circuits

This paper reports on two methods to enable the manufacturing of hybrid nano and micrometer sized systems: (i) electrostatically directed self-assembly of nanoparticles and nanowires to form nanoparticle and nanowire based devices, and (ii) surface tension driven self-assembly of micrometer sized components to form multi-component hybrid microsystems. Both self-assembly techniques are programma...

Quantum Chemical Investigations on C14C10-Branched-Chain Glucoside Isomers Towards Understanding Self-Assembly

Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out using a Polarizable Continuum Model (PCM) in an attempt to investigate the electro-molecular properties of branched-chain glucoside (C14C10-D-glucoside) isomers. The results showed that αconfiguration of pyranoside form is thermodynamically the most stable, while the solution should contain much more β...

Fabrication of Polyhedral Particles from Spherical Colloids and Their Self-Assembly into Rotator Phases**

Particle shape is a critical parameter that plays an important role in self-assembly, for example, in designing targeted complex structures with desired properties. Over the last decades, an unprecedented range of monodisperse nanoparticle systems with control over the shape of the particles have become available. In contrast, the choice of micrometer-sized colloidal building blocks of particle...

Determination of mercury (II) by spectrophotometric method based on self assembly of gold nanoparticles

Due to the binding of the –COO- group with the mercury (II), gold nanoparticlesfunctionalized with glutathione can self-assemble to form a supermolecular network in the HAc-NaAc buffer solution. The aggregation of functionalized gold nanoparticles and mercury (II)caused the shift of maximum absorption peak of the UV-Vis spectrum from 520 nm to 609 nm.Based on this principle, a simple spectropho...
