Highly crystalline anisotropic superstructures via magnetic field induced nanoparticle assembly.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A magnetic field is successfully utilized to induce the fabrication of size controllable one-dimensional (1-D) supercrystals which are composed of a highly crystalline assembly of fcc-packed cobalt nanoparticles; the anisotropy associated supercrystal magnetism is enhanced with four times higher coercivity than that of randomly aggregated nanoparticles.

Magnetic field-induced assembly of oriented superlattices from maghemite nanocubes.
Tailoring the structure of nanocrystal superlattices is an important step toward controlled design of novel nanostructured materials and devices. We demonstrate how the long-range order and macroscopic dimensions of magnetic nanoparticle arrays can be controlled by the use of a modulated magnetic field. Inducing a dipolar attraction during the initial stage of the drying-mediated self-assembly ...
متن کاملDesign principles for Bernal spirals and helices with tunable pitch.
Using the framework of potential energy landscape theory, we describe two in silico designs for self-assembling helical colloidal superstructures based upon dipolar dumbbells and Janus-type building blocks, respectively. Helical superstructures with controllable pitch length are obtained using external magnetic field driven assembly of asymmetric dumbbells involving screened electrostatic as we...
متن کاملShape-dependent oriented trapping and scaffolding of plasmonic nanoparticles by topological defects for self-assembly of colloidal dimers in liquid crystals.
We demonstrate scaffolding of plasmonic nanoparticles by topological defects induced by colloidal microspheres to match their surface boundary conditions with a uniform far-field alignment in a liquid crystal host. Displacing energetically costly liquid crystal regions of reduced order, anisotropic nanoparticles with concave or convex shapes not only stably localize in defects but also self-ori...
متن کاملHierarchical superstructure of alkylamine-coated ZnS nanoparticle assembliesw
We describe methodology for producing highly uniform, ordered and reproducible superstructures of surfactant-coated ZnS nanorod and nanowire assemblies, and propose a predictive multiscale ‘‘packing model’’ for superstructure formation based on electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction data on the superstructure, as well as on individual components of the nanostructured system. The studi...
متن کاملPeptide-directed synthesis and assembly of hollow spherical CoPt nanoparticle superstructures.
Controlling the directed assembly of nanoparticles into welldefined nanoparticle superstructures is a significant challenge, and our goal is to develop a general methodology to address this issue. The success and broad applicability of a particular nanoparticle-assembly methodology should be assessed according to the following important criteria: 1) diverse structural scope, 2) ability to tune ...
