Spontaneous one dimensional arrangement of spherical Au nanoparticles with liquid crystal ligands

Abstract: Spontaneous one dimensional arrangements of spherical Au nanoparticles were accomplished by using a liquid crystalline thiol ligand, 4'-(12-mercaptododecyloxy)biphenyl-4-carbonitrile. Simple thermal treatment of Au nanoparticles with the ligands showed 1D ordering of the Au nanoparticles.

“…For example, In et al reported a LC-thiol ligand, 4'-(12-mercaptrododecyloxy)biphenyl-4-carbonitrile, to assemble Au particles by making use of the interactions between the numerous neighboring mesogens, seeking for thermodynamic stability. [164] Furthermore, one-dimensional assembly of nanoparticles can be achieved using inorganic nanowires such as LiMo 3 Se 3 or carbon nanotube templates. [114] NPs can be assembled at the interior or exterior of the templates.…”

“…The nematic HS10OCB was synthesized in three steps as described by Kim et al [11] starting from 4'-hydroxybiphenyl-4-carbonitril and 1,10-dibromodecane. HS10OCB forms an enantiotropic nematic phase between 62 and 72.5 8C (on heating).…”

“…BCP-templated nanocomposite structures, in which nanoparticles are forced into specific domains, have been reported both in simulations [44] and experiment, [45][46][47] but they have the same limitations as the conventional nanocomposites mentioned in the introduction (mixing, agglomeration and low inorganic volume fractions). An alternative route is to use HNPs where the hairs are BCPs [48,49] or liquid crystal mesogens [50,51] . This design allows for much more controlled structure formation (Fig.…”
