Hierarchical Luminescence Patterning Based on Multiscaled Self-Assembly

Abstract

This communication describes a procedure for fabrication of hierarchical luminescence patterns based on the template-assisted assembly of CdSe nanocrystals on a self-assembled structure with green-emitting microstripes, as well as the photoinduced fluorescence enhancement of CdSe nanocrystals and photobleaching of dyes. The technique is low-cost and high-throughput and can be extended to many material combinations.

Selective deposition of organic molecules onto DPPC templates – A molecular dynamics study

“…A detailed description of the pattern formation and some of the applications is given in the literature [16,17]. Previous studies have shown that DPPC stripe patterns can be utilized as a template to pattern nanocrystals [18][19][20] or proteins [21]. Recently, the DPPC stripe pattern was introduced as a template for patterning luminescent organic molecules like 3(5)-(9-anthryl) pyrazole (ANP) [22], perylene [23] and sexiphenyl (6P), whose chemical structures are given in Fig.…”

Hierarchically Ordered Polymer Films by Templated Organization of Aqueous Droplets

“…Hierarchically ordered structures have attracted a great deal of attention because they hold promise for numerous applications such as photonic devices, [1,2] micro-structured electrode surfaces, [3] biosensor arrays, [4] membranes for separation, catalysts, [5] and lithographic masks for complex structures. [6] The multilevel ordering of a hierarchical structure facilitates incorporation of diverse functions simultaneously.…”

“…Various bottom-up fabrication methods utilizing self-assembling materials have been combined with top-down fabrication approaches to yield hierarchically ordered structures. [1,2,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] In these approaches, a length scale in the finally prepared structure is practically determined by the choice of self-assembling material, thus prohibiting dynamic control over characteristic length scales. Moreover, complex chemistry including highly toxic agents is frequently involved in the fabrication process, which limits application towards diverse polymeric materials.…”

On‐Chip Integration of Functional Hybrid Materials and Components in Nanophotonics and Optoelectronics

“…An alternative method for the nanofabrication hierarchical luminescence patterning is proposed by Chen et al [166] . Instead of e -beam lithography (EBL) and photolithography, this method offers a self -assembly solution to the nanofabrication.…”
