Functional Materials from Colloidal Self-assembly

About this book

A comprehensive resource for new and veteran researchers in the field of self-assembling and functional materials

In Functional Materials from Colloidal Self-assembly, a pair of distinguished researchers delivers a thorough overview of how the colloidal self-assembly approach can enable the design and fabrication of several functional materials and devices. Among other topics, the book explores the foundations of self-assembly in different systems, nucleation, the growth of nanoparticles, self-assembly of colloidal microspheres for photonic crystals and devices, and the self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules as a template for mesoporous materials.

The authors also discuss the self-assembly of biomolecules, superstructures from self-assembly, architectures from self-assembly, and the applications of self-assembled nanostructures.

Functional Materials from Colloidal Self-assembly provides a balanced approach to the theoretical background and applications of the subject, offering sound guidance to both experienced and early-career researchers. The book also delivers:

  • A thorough introduction to the fundamentals of colloids, including the theory of nucleation and the growth of colloidal particles
  • Comprehensive explorations of mechanisms and strategies for the self-assembly of colloidal particles, including DNA-mediated colloidal self-assembly
  • Practical discussions of characterization techniques for self-assembled colloidal structures, including electron microscopy techniques and X-ray techniques
  • In-depth examinations of biological and biomedical materials, including tissue engineering, drug loading and release, and biodetection

Perfect for materials scientists, inorganic chemists, and catalytic chemists, Functional Materials from Colloidal Self-assembly is also a must-read reference for biochemists and surface chemists seeking a one-stop resource on self-assembling and functional materials.
