In-situ investigation of temperature induced agglomeration in non-polar magnetic nanoparticle dispersions by small angle X-ray scattering

Christian Appel, Björn Kuttich, Tobias Kraus +1

Non-polar magnetic nanoparticles agglomerate upon cooling. This process is followed by in-situ small angle X-ray scattering to assess structural properties of the emerging agglomer…

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…

On the colloidal stability of apolar nanoparticles: The role of particle size and ligand shell structure

Thomas Kister, Debora Monego, Paul Mulvaney +2

Being able to predict and tune the colloidal stability of nanoparticles is essential for a wide range of applications, yet our ability to do so is currently poor due to a lack of u…

On the geometric stability of an inorganic nanowire and an organic ligand shell

Simon Bettscheider, Tobias Kraus, Norman A. Fleck

The break-up of a nanowire with an organic ligand shell into discrete droplets is analysed in terms of the Rayleigh-Plateau instability. Explicit account is taken of the effect of…

Structure diagram of binary Lennard-Jones clusters

Marko Mravlak, Thomas Kister, Tobias Kraus +1

We analyze the structure diagram for binary clusters of Lennard-Jones particles by means of a global optimization approach for a large range of cluster sizes, compositions and inte…
