Control of Nanomaterial Self-Assembly in Ultrasonically Levitated Droplets.
We demonstrate that acoustic trapping can be used to levitate and manipulate droplets of soft matter, in particular, lyotropic mesophases formed from self-assembly of different surfactants and lipids, which can be analyzed in a contact-less manner by X-ray scattering in a controlled gas-phase environment. On the macroscopic length scale, the dimensions and the orientation of the particle are sh...
متن کاملCavity optomechanics of levitated nanodumbbells: nonequilibrium phases and self-assembly.
Levitated nanospheres in optical cavities open a novel route to study many-body systems out of solution and highly isolated from the environment. We show that properly tuned optical parameters allow for the study of the nonequilibrium dynamics of composite nanoparticles with nonisotropic optical friction. We find optically induced ordering and nematic transitions with nonequilibrium analogs to ...
متن کاملSelf-assembly approaches to nanomaterial encapsulation in viral protein cages.
A perspective on abiotic material encapsulation inside virus capsids is provided. The emphasis is on the physical principles of virus assembly relevant to packaging, strategies for encapsulation and capsid modification, and on emerging applications.
متن کاملTurbulent Transition in Electromagnetically Levitated Liquid Metal Droplets
iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks to my family. The condition of fluid flow has been proven to have a significant influence on a wide variety of material processes. In electromagnetic levitation (EML) experiments, the internal flow is driven primarily by electromagnetic forces. In 1-g, the positioning forces are very strong and the internal flows are turbulent. To reduce the flows driven by the levitat...
متن کاملExploring NOy chemistry in levitated aqueous aerosol droplets
Atmospheric aerosol Atmospheric aerosol is a variable, yet critical component of the climate system and has substantial impact on climate change. [1-3] Aerosols affect climate directly, by scattering and absorbing solar radiation, and indirectly, by acting as cloud condensation nuclei, CCN. Clouds may reduce the incident radiation on the surface, increase or decrease temperatures, and suppress ...
