Light-Controlled Nucleation and Shaping of Self-Assembling Nanocomposites

Marloes H. Bistervels et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates light-controlled nucleation and growth for self-assembling composites, showing precise control over the process by optimizing photogeneration, diffusion, reaction, and precipitation of the carbonate species. The ability to induce nucleation and sculpt the contours and features of the growing composite according to micrometer-defined light patterns opens up previously unimaginable opportunities for guiding self-assembly into functional materials.

3D Binary Mesocrystals from Anisotropic Nanoparticles

Christian Jenewein et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the simultaneous self-assembly of platinum and iron oxide nanocubes into micrometer-sized 3D mesocrystals using gas-phase diffusion technique, showing long-range ordering on the atomic scale. The addition of minor amounts of a secondary particle type promotes random incorporation of foreign particles into a self-assembling host lattice. Advanced transmission and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to visualize the random distribution of binary particle types on the surface and within the crystal bulk.

Nanoarchitectured prototypes of mesoporous silica nanoparticles for innovative biomedical applications

Ranjith Kumar Kankala et al.

Summary: Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have great potential in biomedical applications, but traditional MSNs have limitations such as reduced drug encapsulation efficacy and poor degradability. Hierarchically-engineered MSNs have been developed by tuning the pore sizes, modifying the surfaces, and engineering the siliceous networks. These engineered MSNs have complex structures and can be applied in drug delivery, bioimaging, tissue engineering, and other fields.

Crystal Nucleation and Growth of Inorganic Ionic Materials from Aqueous Solution: Selected Recent Developments, and Implications

Denis Gebauer et al.

Summary: This review article highlights selected, latest theoretical and experimental advancements in the field of nucleation and crystal growth of inorganic materials from aqueous solution, with a focus on literature after 2015 and non-classical pathways. It emphasizes the underappreciated role of water and solvent entropy throughout the crystallization process. The potential of these approaches in different systems and the broader implications of re-assessing crystallization pathways are discussed, along with summarizing various techniques suitable for exploring crystallization pathways in aqueous solution and proposing a flow chart for theory selection based on experimental observations.
