چکیده

It is shown that gold nanorods (GNRs) can be easily inserted into the supramolecular order of discotic liquid crystals (DLCs) along the director without disturbing their mesomorphism. GNRs embedded discotic nanoribbons, useful for constructing devices like thin film transistors, sensors, etc., are prepared by simple solution processing of GNR-DLC nanocomposites.

Chemical-Bonding-Directed Hierarchical Assembly of Nanoribbon-Shaped Nanocomposites of Gold Nanorods and Poly(3-hexylthiophene).

Nanoribbon-shaped nanocomposites composed of conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanoribbons and plasmonic gold nanorods (AuNRs) were crafted by a co-assembly of thiol-terminated P3HT (P3HT-SH) nanofibers with dodecanethiol-coated AuNRs (AuNRs-DDT). First, P3HT-SH nanofibers were formed due to interchain π-π stacking. Upon the addition of AuNRs-DDT, P3HT-SH nanofibers were transfor...

Supporting information for Magnetic Doping and Kondo Effect in Bi2Se3 Nanoribbons

Using Fe-Au and Ni-Au thin films as catalysts for the VLS growth of Bi 2 Se 3 nanoribbons, we obtain two distinct morphologies in the case of Fe-Au thin films and three distinct morphologies in the case of Ni-Au thin films. For Fe-doped Bi 2 Se 3 nanoribbons, we observe wide nanoribbons (Fig. S1(c,d)) and narrow, long nanoribbons (Fig. S1(e,f)). For Ni-doped Bi 2 Se 3 nanoribbons, we observe wi...

Characteristic image patterns of single anisotropic plasmonic nanoparticles embedded in a gel matrix.

We present characteristic doughnut-shaped image patterns of gold nanorods embedded in a thin layer of a gel matrix observed under a dark-field microscope. The characteristic scattering field distributions allow us to estimate the spatial orientation of single gold nanorods. The measured scattering patterns are further verified by a simulation study.

Scanning Electron Microscopic Characterization of Copper (II) Phthalocyanine Nanocrystallites Thin Films Deposited on Technologically Important Substrates

Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) demonstrates spectacular changes in the morphology of thin films of copper (II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) deposited on gold coated quartz substrates at different substrate temperatures, and on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates at room temperature followed by post deposition annealing at various temperatures under normal atmosphere. The nature of s...

Spin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake embedded between two armchair nanoribbons electrodes

We study the coherent spin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake (ZGF), using Hubbard model in the nearest neighbor approximation within the framework of the Green function’s technique and Landauer formalism. The system considered consists of electrode/ (ZGF)/electrode, in which the electrodes are chosen to be armchair nanoribbons. The study was performed for two types of ele...
