This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-assembly of Nano- and Micro-structured Materials Using Colloidal Engineering, Volume 12, covers the recent breakthroughs in the design and manufacture of functional colloids at the micro- and nanoscale level. In addition, it provides analyses on how these functionalities can be exploited to develop self-assembly pathways towards nano- and micro-structured materials. As we seek increasingly complex functions for colloidal superstructures, in silico design will play a critical role in guiding experimental fabrication by reducing the element of trial-and-error that would otherwise be involved. In addition to novel experimental approaches, recent developments in computational modelling are also presented, along with an overview of the arsenal of designing tools that are available to the modern materials scientist. Focuses on promoting feedback between experiment, theory and computation in this cross-disciplinary research area Shows how colloid science plays a crucial role in the bottom-up fabrication of nanostructured materials Presents recent developments in computational modelling

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Introduction: Nanotechnology and its underpinning sciences are progressing with unprecedented rapidity. With technical advances in a variety of nanoscale fabrication and manipulation technologies, the whole topical area is maturing into a vibrant field that is generating new scientific research and a burgeoning range of commercial applications, with an annual market already at the trillion dollar threshold. The means of fabricating and controlling matter on the nanoscale afford striking and unprecedented opportunities to exploit a variety of exotic phenomena such as quantum, nanophotonic and nanoelectromechanical effects. Moreover, researchers are elucidating new perspectives on the electronic and optical properties of matter because of the way that nanoscale materials bridge the disparate theories describing molecules and bulk matter. Surface phenomena also gain a greatly increased significance; even the well-known link between chemical reactivity and surface-to-volume ratio becomes a major determinant of physical properties, when it operates over nanoscale dimensions. Against this background, this comprehensive work is designed to address the need for a dynamic, authoritative and readily accessible source of information, capturing the full breadth of the subject. Its six volumes, covering a broad spectrum of disciplines including material sciences, chemistry, physics and life sciences, have been written and edited by an outstanding team of international experts. Addressing an extensive, cross-disciplinary audience, each chapter aims to cover key developments in a scholarly, readable and critical style, providing an indispensible first point of entry to the literature for scientists and technologists from interdisciplinary fields. The work focuses on the major classes of nanomaterials in terms of their synthesis, structure and applications, reviewing nanomaterials and their respective technologies in well-structured and comprehensive articles with extensive cross-references. It has been a constant surprise and delight to have found, amongst the rapidly escalating number who work in nanoscience and technology, so many highly esteemed authors willing to contribute. Sharing our anticipation of a major addition to the literature, they have also captured the excitement of the field itself in each carefully crafted chapter. Along with our painstaking and meticulous volume editors, full credit for the success of this enterprise must go to these individuals, together with our thanks for (largely) adhering to the given deadlines. Lastly, we record our sincere thanks and appreciation for the skills and professionalism of the numerous Elsevier staff who have been involved in this project, notably Fiona Geraghty, Megan Palmer and Greg Harris, and especially Donna De Weerd-Wilson who has steered it through from its inception. We have greatly enjoyed working with them all, as we have with each other.

Download or read book Self assembly from Nanoscale to the Mesoscale written by Efraim David Feinstein and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating useful, ordered structures out of disordered components is the essence of engineering. As materials reduce in size, new techniques are required to produce order at ever smaller scales. In self-assembly processes, energy sources such as thermal energy drive the initially disordered components of a system toward a stable, ordered state. The interactions between the components define the result. We may take advantage of scale-independent self-assembly processes to simplify the engineering of complex systems over orders of magnitude of size. In this dissertation, we present three self-assembling systems. In the first, nonmagnetic particles in a magnetic fluid are self-assembled into ordered clusters. The geometry of the external magnetic field determines the cluster's ultimate geometry. The scale is limited by the magnetization of the fluid and the volumina of the particles. Such a system is useful to bioengineering applications, in cases where it is necessary to work with relatively large-scale components in the absence of a hard surface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology spans and merges very diverse areas from device physics to molecular self-assembly, from development of new materials with nanoscale dimensions to manipulating existing materials on atomic scale. DNA nanotechnology is the field of nanotechnology that uses the unique structure and properties of DNA as a structural material or computational medium. DNA nanotechnology has various applications but mostly is used in DNA computing and molecular self-assembly. In this dissertation these two areas are investigated. Under DNA-based nanofabrication, construction of functional materials as building blocks for nanoelectronics and optimal DNA sequence design for assembly are researched. Conjugation of carbon nanotubes as well as end-to-end assembly of nanowires with DNA is demonstrated, electrical measurements are investigated, and the process is carried on an electronic microarray platform. This electronic microarray platform is adopted to perform DNA computing, which is the biggest accomplishment of this dissertation. The information present in an image is encoded through various DNA strands and decoded on a CMOS-enabled platform to recreate the original image. Satisfiability problems were solved via 2 different methods. It is notable that the proposed approach eliminated the need for PCR and enzymes, resulting in a decreased error rates and cost. Overall, this technique shows significant advantages over previous experimental techniques such as short operating time, reusable surface and simple experimental steps. Finally, microelectronics and molecular biology techniques are integrated for showing the feasibility of Hopfield neural network using DNA molecules. Six-dimensional Hopfield associative memory storing various memories is demonstrated as an archetype neural network using DNA. The results are read on an electronic microarray platform, which opens the semiconductor processing knowledge for fast and accurate hybridization rates. The research undertaken under the umbrella of this dissertation is expected to have broad implications for next-generation functional materials such as nanoscale building blocks. The proposed surface-based DNA computation approach will bring the hybrid concept of silicon-compatible DNA computing to realization. Integration of a CMOS platform and DNA for a completely non-biological purpose has the potential to greatly affect the future applications.
