An Introduction to Stochastic Self-Assembly: Theory, Simulation and Experimental Applications (thesis)
We introduce three stochastic cooperative models for particle deposition and evaporation relevant to ionic self-assembly of nanoparticles with applications in surface fabrication and nanomedicine. We present a method for ...
Directed Self-Assembly: A Study of the Effect of Electric Fields on Silica Monolayers (thesis)
In this thesis, we describe, analyze, and extend ionic self-assembly of monolayers (ISAM), a bottom-up nanostructure production technique designed to coat surfaces in uniform layers of charged nanoparticles. Using mean ...
The Fabrication of Antireflective Coatings by the Self-Assembly of Silica Nanopartical and Polycation Bilayers (thesis)
This study examines several factors that affect the quality of antireflective coatings
created by the self-assembly of alternating layers of silica (SiOz) nanoparticles an poly(allylamine hydrochloride) or poly(diallyld ...
