The significant advances in synthesis and functionalization have enabled the preparation of
high-quality nanoparticles that have found a plethora of successful applications. The unique …

Pattern formation is a frequent phenomenon in physics, chemistry, biology, and materials
science. Bottom-up pattern formation usually occurs in the interaction of the transport …

The present manuscript provides a comprehensive overview and partial analysis of both
advanced and innovative recycling techniques for functionalized nanoparticles. Such …

Monolayer-protected metal nanoparticles (NPs) are not only promising materials with a wide
range of potential industrial and biological applications, but they are also a powerful tool to …

The uniformity and reproducibility of substrates highly determine the applicability of surface-
enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Production of them, however, remains a challenge …

A hybrid monomer consisting of diphenylalanine with the self-assembling ability and
tetraphenylethylene (TPE) with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties was …

Dissipative patterns with solid-phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature. Despite their
ubiquitous nature, there is no unified understanding of the non-equilibrium self-assembly …

Precipitation of oppositely charged entities is a common phenomenon in nature and
laboratories. Precipitation and crystallization of oppositely charged ions are well-studied and …

Establishing a “precise” control over different interparticle interactions holds the promise of
introducing inherently absent properties to nanosystems. In this direction, our aim is to …

Highly ordered superstructures composed of inorganic nanoparticles appear in natural and
synthetic systems, however the mechanisms of non‐equilibrium self‐organization that may …
