“…As is widely known, this strategy is mostly used for deposition of organic materials including biopolymers although recent efforts have demonstrated use of the LB method for inorganic substances such as nanorods, nanosheets and other nano-objects. 17,18 For example, Zeng et al 19 applied LB deposition for ultralarge graphene oxide sheets up to 200 mm in lateral size that could be converted into a transparent thin film conductor by subsequent reduction and chemical doping. The measured sheet resistance was better than that of chemical vapor deposition-prepared graphene film.…”

Although progress in nanotechnology is anticipated to stimulate the development of innovative materials, the areas of nanotechnology and materials science are somehow separated with little common ground in current technologies. Nanotechnology has some analytical aspects that are beneficial mainly to the nanoscopic sciences at the atom or molecular levels. Experience of these advanced techniques has only been applied in synthetic approaches to macroscopic materials in rather immature level. Forming nanomaterials into hierarchic and organized structures is a rational way of preparing advanced functional materials. Recently, one of us coined the term materials' nanoarchitectonics to express this innovation. This review focuses on recent research to develop functional materials by forming nanomaterials into organized structures, especially in well-ordered layered structural motifs. This layered nanoarchitectonics can be achieved by using the versatile technology of layer-by-layer assembly. Reassembly of bulk materials into novel layered structures through layered nanoarchitectonics has created many innovative functional materials in a wide variety of fields as can be seen in ferromagnetic nanosheets, sensors, flame-retardant coatings, transparent conductors, electrodes and transistors, walking devices, drug release surfaces, targeting drug carriers and cell culturing.

“…In recent years this technique has been developed for the assembly of nanomaterials, including nanoparticles, 36 nanorods, nanowires, nanotubes, and even two-dimensional nanosheets, 37 which are usually functionalized by surfactants in order to form stable suspensions in the organic solvents. 38 The process of the LB technique for alignment of nanowires is illustrated in Fig. 5a.…”

Semiconducting inorganic nanowires (NWs), nanotubes and nanofibers have been extensively explored in recent years as potential building blocks for nanoscale electronics, optoelectronics, chemical/biological/ optical sensing, and energy harvesting, storage and conversion, etc. Besides the top-down approaches such as conventional lithography technologies, nanowires are commonly grown by the bottom-up approaches such as solution growth, template-guided synthesis, and vapor-liquid-solid process at a relatively low cost. Superior performance has been demonstrated using nanowires devices. However, most of the nanowire devices are limited to the demonstration of single devices, an initial step toward nanoelectronic circuits, not adequate for production on a large scale at low cost. Controlled and uniform assembly of nanowires with high scalability is still one of the major bottleneck challenges towards the materials and device integration for electronics. In this review, we aim to present recent progress toward nanowire device assembly technologies, including flow-assisted alignment, Langmuir-Blodgett assembly, bubble-blown technique, electric/magnetic-field-directed assembly, contact/roll printing, planar growth, bridging method, and electrospinning, etc. And their applications in high-performance, flexible electronics, sensors, photovoltaics, bioelectronic interfaces and nano-resonators are also presented.

“…By previous authors, LB technique was stated as a potential technique for the production of ultra-thin films with controlled molecular orientation. The LB technique supported rigid nanomaterial to be aligned in particular structures through a flexible assembly process at liquid interfaces [35]. LB technique was used to see the formation of PANI-EB monolayer before deposited on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) glass [19].…”

Abstract-This review paper describes the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on nanopolyaniline (PANI) by using self-assembly technique. Some chemically synthesized conductive polymers such as PANI were used as support for HRP immobilization. Enzymes immobilized were depend on their properties of immobilize of HRP such as optimum pH, thermal stability and storage stability and all these were investigated. The structure of PANI was characterized by FTIR, FESEM and UV-VIS. The structure of PANI depends on the pH of the phosphate buffer and the type of organic solvent. Thus, the formation of monolayer especially nano-particles of PANI was prepared by using Langmuir-Blodgett technique. The contribution in the development of the biosensor application for hydrogen peroxidase (H 2 O 2 ) based on the HRP modified electrode was described.
