Self-assembly of Functional Nanomaterials
Self-assembly of Functional Nanomaterials
Self-assembly of functional nanomaterials is a powerful approach for constructing robust and scalable systems with tailored properties for advanced applications. Our research focuses on the synthesis and directed self-assembly of inorganic nanomaterials to achieve precise structural control and enhanced functionality. We design nanoparticles with customized surface chemistries, including PVP-coated BTO nanoparticles, to regulate interfacial behavior and improve stability. Additionally, we develop polymer-grafted inorganic nanomaterials using silane-based grafting techniques to enable precise surface modifications and functionalization. Utilizing interface-mediated self-assembly methods, such as film formation and Pickering emulsion techniques, we fabricate freestanding nanoparticle networks with exceptional mechanical flexibility and multifunctionality. These self-assembled films are engineered for a range of applications, including flexible electronics, high-performance gas sensors, and durable coatings. By integrating innovative material synthesis with advanced assembly strategies, we aim to drive the development of next-generation nanomaterial-based devices and solutions.
