When Like Destabilizes Like: Inverted Solvent Effects in Apolar Nanoparticle Dispersions
Debora Monego, Thomas Kister, Nicholas Kirkwood +4
We report on the colloidal stability of nanoparticles with alkanethiol shells in apolar solvents. Small angle X-ray scattering and molecular dynamics simulations were used to chara…
Quantum-Probe Field Microscopy of Ultrafast Terahertz Excitations
Moritz B. Heindl, Nicholas Kirkwood, Tobias Lauster +4
Rapid evolutions of microscopic fields govern the majority of elementary excitations in condensed matter and drive microelectronic currents at increasing frequencies. Beyond nomina…
On the colloidal stability of apolar nanoparticles: The role of ligand length
Debora Monego, Thomas Kister, Nicholas Kirkwood +3
Inorganic nanoparticle cores are often coated with organic ligands to render them dispersible in apolar solvents. However, the effect of the ligand shell on the colloidal stability…
