Self-assembly of colloidal particles on different surfaces

An approach to surface functionalization of indium tin oxide for regular growth of silver nano-particles and their optical features

“…During the seed-growth process, the lattice variation distortion can directly affect the contact angle [14,27] of the deposited AgNPs, which explains the slightly decrease in the AgNPs average size (r Ag ) from 40, 35 to 30 nm and AgNPs size regularity (see Table 2) produced on ITO substrate with different thicknesses and roughness.…”

“…Ghoranneviss et al [13] fabricated Cu-NP deposited on different substrates such as glass, Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 and showed that uniform and nano-sized Cu nanoparticles can be produced on a lower-roughness substrate. Ulmeanu et al [14] have also described the self-assembly process of silica colloidal particles for substrate surfaces implying mica, glass, Ag and Au thin films. For a constant solid concentration of colloidal particles, the quality of the self-assembled mono-layers was highly improved in rugged surface due to the large contact angle.…”

Modeling of LbL multilayers with controlled thickness, roughness, and specific surface area

“…3,4 Because of major practical importance, mono-and bi-layer deposition of particles has extensively been studied both theoretically [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] and experimentally. [9][10][11][12][13][14] However, despite their increasing significance for the prepaa) Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.…”

Micro-particles in a Nanoliter Droplet Dispensed by a Pneumatic Dispensing System and Its Measurement

“…용액 챔버 중앙에 입구 부분을 돌출 된 구조(bump structure)로 설계함으로써, 디스펜싱 과정에서 발생하는 용액의 역류(backflow)를 최소 화 할 수 있었다. 16 실험 결과, 소수성 표면에서 증발 후 남은 입자들은 여러 층(multi-layer)을 이루는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다( Fig. 3(a)).…”
