Tethered Nano Building Blocks: Toward a Conceptual Framework for Nanoparticle Self-Assembly

Zhang, Horsch, Mark A., Lamm, Monica H., Glotzer, Sharon C.·2003·Nano Letters

Abstract

We perform molecular simulations to study the self-assembly of nanoparticles functionalized with oligomeric tethers attached to specific locations on the nanoparticle surface. We demonstrate that for certain categories of tethered nano building blocks the obtained morphologies may be predicted using concepts from block copolymer microphase separation and liquid-crystal phase ordering, whereas for other categories the unique packing constraints introduced by nanoparticle geometry and by nanoparticle−tether topology lead to structures far richer than those found in conventional block copolymer, surfactant, and liquid-crystal systems. Our results suggest the potential usefulness of considering tethered nano building blocks as a new class of “macromolecule” for assembling novel materials on the nanoscale.

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.
