Tribological and mechanical characterizations of polyelectrolyte multilayer nanoassemblies
Over the last decade, the sequential layer-by-layer assembly of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes has received much interest for the deposition of film architectures, ranging from tens to hundreds of nanometers in thickness, that can be precisely tuned as a function of the processing conditions. …

Luminescent Semiconductor Quantum Dots (QDs) and Their Nanoassemblies as Bioprobes
… were used to characterize the QDs and their nanoassemblies. CdS QDs synthesized in reverse micelles showed broad emission spectra. CdSe-CdS QDs with core shell structure synthesized in aqueous solution showed more than 30% emission quantum yield. CdSe-CdS QDs of different emission colors were …

Toward therapeutic nanoassemblies: the design and modeling of protein-protein interactions.
Unraveling the nanoscale processes of biological pathways via the testing, replication, and visualization of the underlying mechanisms remains a persistent challenge in the study of these critical life-governing systems. Recent advances in the field of chemically induced dimerization have unlocked …

Studying DNA-Directed Nanoassembly, Hybridization and Mismatch-Discrimination via Plasmon Scattering of Gold Nanoparticles
… the nAu-DNA assembly formation, and to apply the nanoassemblies for DNA detection. The nanoassembly structures, successfully correlated to the LSPR wavelength shift and the plasmon color change, showed that their homogeneous formations in bulk solution were influenced by parameters inherent to nAu …

Immobilization of Inorganic Nanoparticles on Responsive Polymer Brushes
… to use the resulting polymer brush-nanoparticles nanoassemblies in the fabrication of nanosensors. The design of fabricated nanosensors is based on the modulation in the interparticle distance of immobilized nanoparticles due to swelling/deswelling of underlined polymer brushes in response to some …

Investigation of solution-phase and on-chip binding of C-reactive proteins and antibodies
Gold nanoparticles can self-assemble into nanostructures in the presence of suitable linker molecules. The self-assembly of gold nanoparticles functionalized with C-reactive protein (CRP) antibodies in the presence of CRP antigen linker molecules was explored. A ratio of antigen linker molecules to …
