Toward a Tetravalent Chemistry of Colloids
Open accessAbstract
We propose coating spherical particles or droplets with anisotropic nanosized objects to allow micron-scale colloids to link or functionalize with a 4-fold valence, similar to the sp 3 hybridized chemical bonds associated with, e.g., carbon, silicon, and germanium. Candidates for such coatings include triblock copolymers, gemini lipids, metallic or semiconducting nanorods, and conventional liquid crystal compounds. We estimate the size of the relevant nematic Frank constants, discuss how to obtain other valences and analyze the thermal distortions of ground-state configurations of defects on the sphere.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
