Download or read book Studying the Underlying Mechanisms of Nanoparticle Assembly and Attachment written by Omid Jahanmahin and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shedding some light on the hidden layers of nanoparticle assembly techniques and mechanisms will allow scientists and engineers to gain a higher degree of controllability when designing nanostructures with customized optical, electric, and magnetic properties for various applications such as sensing platforms, medical diagnostics, particle filtration, energy storage devices, flexible LEDs, lasers, selective catalysts, solar cells, electronic skin, etc. In one of our works, we developed a model to account for all the involved electrostatic and van der Waals interactions to study the silica-coated gold nanowire (NW) self-assembly on gold stripes on a glass substrate. Monte Carlo simulations of NW self-assembled patterns were consistent with experimental results. It was found that although NW-stripe vdW is essential to bring NWs atop the stripes, it has a negative impact on the final NW alignments. Further, it was shown that charge nonuniformity arising from extra charges at the end of NWs plays a crucial role in forming final, well-ordered structures on top of the Au stipes. We also studied individual and binary colloidal particle assemblies of TiO2, SiO2, and PMMA on top of or around the photoresist posts for various frequencies and voltage levels using the reconfigurable assembly method of dielectrophoresis (DEP). Monte Carlo simulations based on our developed model depicted consistent results with experimental observations, except for co-assemblies of TiO2 with SiO2 or PMMA. The abnormal behavior of TiO2 in the presence of SiO2 and PMMA particles and not showing a crossover from pDEP (around the posts) to nDEP (top of the posts) similar to individual TiO2 assemblies has been investigated to reveal the underlying causes. To study the oriented attachment (OA) mechanism of Pt cuboctahedron nanocrystals (NCs) in the presence of HCl and water, and only water, we performed atomic-scale investigations using reactive force field (ReaxFF) MD simulations and advanced rare event sampling techniques. Four different configurations of high and low pH with attachment pathways of 100-100 and 111-111 were assessed to explain the fundamental reasons behind the preferential attachment of two Pt NCs switching from 100-100 at high pH to 111-111 at low pH. The final simulation outcomes were in harmony with the experiment's findings. Our developed framework for the OA of Pt NCs can be applied to study similar rare event systems with liquid-metal interfaces.

Download or read book Quantum Monte Carlo Methods in Physics and Chemistry written by M.P. Nightingale and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998-12-31 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there has been a considerable growth in interest in Monte Carlo methods, and quantum Monte Carlo methods in particlular. Clearly, the ever-increasing computational power available to researchers, has stimulated the development of improved algorithms, and almost all fields in computational physics and chemistry are affected by their applications. Here we just mention some fields that are covered in the lecture notes contained in this volume, viz. electronic structure studies of atoms, molecules and solids, nuclear structure, and low- or zero-temperature studies of strongly-correlated quantum systems, both of the continuum and lattice variety, and cooperative phenomena in classical systems. Although each area of application may have its own peculiarities, requiring specialized solutions, all share the same basic methodology. It was with the intention of bringing together researchers and students from these various areas that the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Quantum Monte Carlo Methods in Physics and Chemistry was held at Cornell University from 12 to 24 July, 1998. This book contains material presented at the Institute in a series of mini courses in quantum Monte Carlo methods. The program consisted of lectures predominantly of a pedagogical nature, and of more specialized seminars. The levels varied from introductory to advanced, and from basic methods to applications; the program was intended for an audience working towards the Ph.D. level and above. Despite the essentially pedagogic nature of the Institute, several of the lectures and seminars contained in this volume present recent developments not previously published.

Download or read book Monte Carlo N Particle Simulations for Nuclear Detection and Safeguards written by John S. Hendricks and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is a pedagogical, examples-based guide to using the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP®) code for nuclear safeguards and non-proliferation applications. The MCNP code, general-purpose software for particle transport simulations, is widely used in the field of nuclear safeguards and non-proliferation for numerous applications including detector design and calibration, and the study of scenarios such as measurement of fresh and spent fuel. This book fills a gap in the existing MCNP software literature by teaching MCNP software usage through detailed examples that were selected based on both student feedback and the real-world experience of the nuclear safeguards group at Los Alamos National Laboratory. MCNP input and output files are explained, and the technical details used in MCNP input file preparation are linked to the MCNP code manual. Benefiting from the authors’ decades of experience in MCNP simulation, this book is essential reading for students, academic researchers, and practitioners whose work in nuclear physics or nuclear engineering is related to non-proliferation or nuclear safeguards. Each chapter comes with downloadable input files for the user to easily reproduce the examples in the text.

Download or read book Soft Matter Self Assembly written by C.N. Likos and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2016-07-14 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-assembly is one of the key concepts in contemporary soft condensed matter. It is an umbrella term which encompasses the various modes of spontaneous organization of micrometer-and submicrometer-sized particles into ordered structures of various degrees of complexity, yet it often relies on remarkably simple interactions and mechanisms. Self-assembly is one of the key principles used by nature to construct living matter, where it frequently takes place in a hierarchical fashion. This book contains the lectures from the Enrico Fermi summer school: Soft Matter Self-assembly, held in Varenna, Italy, in June and July 2015. The primary aim of the school was to cover the most exciting modern aspects of self-assembly in soft condensed matter physics, and to enable Ph.D. students and postdocs to engage with some of the most exciting and current topics in the physics of colloids through a series of mini-courses and seminars hosted by leading figures in the field. Subjects covered include: colloids with directional bonding; pathways of self-organization; self-assembly hydrodynamics; polymer structure and dynamics; liquid-crystal colloid dispersions; and self-organizing nanosystems. The proceedings also include two reprints from Reviews of Modern Physics, and will be of interest to both students and experts in the field.
