Anisotropic Assembly of Colloidal Nanoparticles: Exploiting Substrate Crystallinity (2007)
Journal Article
Hayton, J., Pauliac-Vaujour, E., & Moriarty, P. (2007). Anisotropic Assembly of Colloidal Nanoparticles: Exploiting Substrate Crystallinity. NANO, 2(6), https://doi.org/10.1142/S1793292007000714

We show that the crystal structure of a substrate can be exploited to drive the anisotropic assembly of colloidal nanoparticles. Pentanethiol-passivated Au particles of approximately 2 nm diameter deposited from toluene onto hydrogen-passivated Si(11...

Controlling Pattern Formation in Nanoparticle Assemblies via Directed Solvent Dewetting (2007)
Journal Article
Martin, C., Blunt, M., Pauliac-Vaujour, E., Stannard, A., Moriarty, P., Vancea, I., & Thiele, U. (2007). Controlling Pattern Formation in Nanoparticle Assemblies via Directed Solvent Dewetting. Physical Review Letters, 99,

We have achieved highly localised control of pattern formation in two dimensional nanoparticle assemblies by direct modification of solvent dewetting dynamics. A striking dependence of nanoparticle organisation on the size of atomic force microscope-... Read More about Controlling Pattern Formation in Nanoparticle Assemblies via Directed Solvent Dewetting.
