Phase Behavior of Thermo-Responsive Nanoplatelets
Imane Boucenna, Florent Carn, Ahmed Mourchid
Nanoplatelets open up a wide range of possibilities for building materials with novel properties linked to their shape anisotropy. A challenge consists of controlling dynamically t…
Flash Colloidal Gold Nanoparticle Assembly in a Milli Flow System: Implications for Thermoplasmonic and for the Amplification of Optical Signals
Florent Voisin, Gérald Lelong, Jean-Michel Guigner +3
The assembly and stabilization of a finite number of nanocrystals in contact in water could maximize the optical absorption per unit of material. Some local plasmonic properties ex…
Auto-assemblies of Alpha-Cyclodextrin and Grafted Polysaccharides: Crystal Structure and Specific Properties of the Platelets
Florent Carn, Sophie Nowak, Ismail Chaab +3
Cyclodextrins (CD) are a family of oligosaccharides with a toroid shape, which exhibit a remarkable ability to include guest molecules in their internal cavity providing a hydropho…
Dehydration, Dissolution and Melting of Cyclodextrin Crystals
Erika Specogna, King Wo Li, Madeleine Djabourov +2
Cyclodextrins are a family of oligosaccharides with a toroid shape which exhibit a unique ability of entrapping guest molecules in their internal cavity. Water is the primary guest…
Pickering emulsions with alpha-cyclodextrin inclusions: Structure and thermal stability
Raul Diaz-Salmeron, Ismail Chaab, Florent Carn +2
This paper explores structural, interfacial and thermal properties of two types of Pickering emulsions containing alpha-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes: on one hand, emulsions wer…
Role of the ratio of biopolyelectrolyte persistence length to nanoparticle size in the structural tuning of electrostatic complexes
Li Shi, Florent Carn, François Boué +1
Aggregation of nanoparticles of given size induced by addition of a polymer strongly depends on its degree of rigidity. This is shown here on a large variety of silica nanopart…
New Insight Into the Size Tuning of Monodispersed Colloidal Gold Obtained by Citrate Method
Li Shi, Eric Buhler, François Boué +1
We study the effect of citrate to gold molar ratio (X) on the size of citrated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). This dependence is still a matter of debate for X 3 where the polyd…
Nanorods of Well-Defined Length and Monodisperse Cross-Section Obtained from Electrostatic Complexation of Nanoparticles with a Semiflexible Biopolymer
Li Shi, Florent Carn, François Boué +2
We show by combining small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) that anionic silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) assemble into well-defined 1…
