چکیده
Positively charged, synthetic chrysotile nanotubes act as inorganic tectons supporting H- and J-type aggregates of anionic porphyrins with markedly different optical properties, making these nanohybrid materials of interest for application in nanotechnology.

LDRD Final Report on Adaptive- Responsive Nanostructures for Sensing Applications
Functional organic nanostructures such as well-formed tubes or fibers that can easily be fabricated into electronic and photonic devices are needed in many applications. Especially desirable from a national security standpoint are nanostructures that have enhanced sensitivity for the detection of chemicals and biological (CB) agents and other environmental stimuli. We recently discovered the fi...
متن کاملEngineering Nano-aggregates: β-Cyclodextrin Facilitates the Thiol-Gold Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
The structure and morphology of nonmaterial formed by colloidal synthesis represent a subject of interest as it is a factor deciding the physicochemical properties and biological applications of nanostructures. Among various nanoparticles, gold can develop fractal assembled patterns. Herein, we report a nano-aggregate of a thiol-on-gold self-assembled structure and the influence of β-cyclodextr...
متن کاملRecent developments in the coordination chemistry of porphyrin complexes containing non-metallic and semi- metallic elements
The tremendous potential for the manifold applications of porphyrins, porphyrazines, and phthalocyanines derives from their photophysical and electrochemical properties, their remarkable stability, and their predictable and rigid structure. These applications include nonlinear optics, catalysts, sensors, actuators, molecular sieves, and therapeutics. All of these properties are modulated by app...
متن کاملStudy of Cis–trans Isomerization Mechanism of [3-(3-Aminomethyl) Phenylazo] Phenyl Acetic Acid as a Causative Role in Alzheimer Using Density Functional Theory
Amyloid-β (Aβ) self-assembly into cross-β amyloidfibrils is implicated in a causative role in Alzheimer’s disease pathology.Uncertainties persist regarding the mechanisms of amyloid self assembly and the role of metastable prefibrillar aggregates. Aβ fibrilsfeature a sheet-turn-sheet motif in the constituent β-strands; as such, turn nucleation has been proposed as a rate-limiting step in the se...
متن کاملParadigm shift from self-assembly to commanded assembly of functional materials: recent examples in porphyrin/fullerene supramolecular systems.
Current nanotechnology based on top-down nanofabrication may encounter a variety of drawbacks in the near future so that development of alternative methods, including the so-called bottom-up approach, has attracted considerable attention. However, the bottom-up strategy, which often relies on spontaneous self-assembly, might be inefficient in the development of the requisite functional material...
