The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few...

Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as...

AOT is also known to be very sensitive to the concentration and nature of counter-ions. When adding a sufficient amount of divalent salt to an AOT solution, a very strong Bragg...

In the metal-organic perovskite copper guanidinium formate, correlated Jahn-Teller distortion gives rise to a 1D magnetic structure made up of Heisenberg antiferromagnetic...

Adsorption of colloidal particles to an interface is of fundamental interest in understanding wetting, capillarity and colloidal forces as well as being of practical importance...

Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects....

Materials with helical and double helical structure motifs are prone to display fascinating spring-type behaviour, i.e. a shallow energy surface along the spring-axis in which...
