Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The self-organization of bionanostructures into well-defined functional machineries found in nature has been a priceless source of ideas for researchers. The molecules of life, proteins, DNA, RNA, etc., as well as the structures and forms that these molecules assume serve as rich sources of ideas for scientists or engineers who are interested in developing bio-inspired materials for innovations in biomedical fields. In nature, molecular self-assembly is a process by which complex three-dimensional structures with well-defined functions are constructed, starting from simple building blocks such as proteins and peptides. This book introduces readers to the theory and mechanisms of peptide self-assembly processes. The authors present the more common peptide self-assembled building blocks and discuss how researchers from different fields can apply self-assembling principles to bionanotechnology applications. The advantages and challenges are mentioned together with examples that reflect the state of the art of the use of self-assembled peptide building blocks in nanotechnology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology has received tremendous interest over the last decade, not only from the scientific community but also from a business perspective and from the general public. Although nanotechnology is still at the largely unexplored frontier of science, it has the potential for extremely exciting technological innovations that will have an enormous impact on areas as diverse as information technology, medicine, energy supply and probably many others. The miniturization of devices and structures will impact the speed of devices and information storage capacity. More importantly, though, nanotechnology should lead to completely new functional devices as nanostructures have fundamentally different physical properties that are governed by quantum effects. When nanometer sized features are fabricated in materials that are currently used in electronic, magnetic, and optical applications, quantum behavior will lead to a set of unprecedented properties. The interactions of nanostructures with biological materials are largely unexplored. Future work in this direction should yield enabling technologies that allows the study and direct manipulation of biological processes at the (sub) cellular level.

This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Top-down approaches are currently the main contributor of fabricating microelectronic devices. However, the prohibitive cost of numerous technological steps in these approaches is the main obstacle to further progress. Furthermore, a large number of applications necessitate fabrication of complex and ultra-small devices that cannot be made using these approaches. New approaches based on natural self-assembly of matter need to be developed to allow for fabrication of micro and nanoelectronic devices. Self-assembly of nanostructures is a dynamic field, which explores physics of these structures and new ways to fabricate them. However, the major problem is how to control the properties of the nanostructures resulting from low dimensionality. This book presents recent advances made to address this problem, and fabricate nanostructures using self-assembly.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bio-nanotechnology has become a widespread exciting field of research as the basic biological structure of bio-inspired materials and nanotechnology share the common length scale. Bio-nanotechnology, which is mainly based on bio-inspired nanostructured materials, has potential applications in nanomedicine, drug delivery, bio-sensors, and bio-degradable electronic devices. The nanostructures obtained from biomolecules are attractive due to their biocompatibility for molecular recognition, ease of chemical modification, and the ability to scaffold other organic and inorganic materials. Peptide nanostructures formed through the self-assembly process of the basic building block of diphenylalanine show promising applications in biodegradable electronic devices, drug delivery, catalysis agent, waveguide, and frequency converter. This research focusses on the self-assembly process in a dipeptide, L, L diphenylalanine (FF) and exploring its electronic, optical, and magnetic properties. The role of solvents in the self-assembly process of FF is explored by combining density functional theory (DFT) along with experimental characterization techniques such as electron microscopy, Raman scattering, and x-ray diffraction (XRD). One of the objectives of this work was to explore the nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of FF nanostructures via second harmonic generation (SHG). The ratio of the nonlinear optical coefficients was obtained from individual FF nanotubes as a function of the tube diameter and thermal annealing conditions. The ratio of the shear to the longitudinal component (d[subsrcipt 15]/d[subsrcipt33]) of the NLO coefficient increases with the diameter of the tubes. One of the transverse components, d[subsrcipt]31, of the NLO coefficient is found to be negative, and its magnitude with respect to the longitudinal component (d[subsrcipt33]) increases with the tube diameter. Thermal treatment of individual FF tubes has a similar effect as increasing the diameter of the tubes in SHG polarimetry. The functionalization of FF micro-nanostructures (FF-MNS) with nanomaterials was studied. FF-MNS with Ag or Au nanoparticles were explored in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Such self-assembled nanostructures provide a natural template for tethering Au and Ag nanoparticles (Nps) due to its fractal surface. The FF-MNS undergo an irreversible phase transition from hexagonal packing (hex) to an orthorhombic (ort) structure at [tilde]150 [degree sign]C. The metal Nps form chains on hex FF-MNS as inferred from transmission electron microscopy images and a uniform non-aggregated distribution in the ort phase. The SERS spectra obtained from R6G bound to FF-MNSs with AuNps show a higher enhancement for the ort phase compared with the hex phase. The experimental results agree well with our calculated Raman spectra of model systems using DFT. Our results indicate that FF-MNS both in the hex and ort phase can be used as substrates for SERS analysis with different metal Nps, opening up a novel class of optically active bio-based substrates. The use of magnetic nanoparticles with biomolecules offers a versatile path for tuning the functionality of the composite material for several applications. The functionalization of FF-MNS with cobalt ferrite (CFO) magnetic nanoparticles was achieved. The interaction between CFO nanoparticles and FF-MNS was investigated by optical spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and magnetization measurements. The changes in the XPS data from pristine FF-MNS and CFO:FF-MNS are indicative of a charge transfer process from CFO to FF-MNS, changing the electronic states of the Fe[superscript 2+] and Co[superscript 2+] ions. A comparison of the magnetic characterization from CFO nanoparticles and CFO:FF-MNS shows a higher saturation magnetization from the nanocomposite sample, which is attributed to a change in the cationic distribution in CFO upon binding with the peptide. We were further successful in demonstrating the application of FF-MNS as a bio-degradable active layer in an organic light emitting diode (OLED). FF-MNS were functionalized with two blue-emitting conducting polymers: di-octyl-substituted polyfluorene (PF8) and ethyl-hexyl polyfluorene (PF2/6), and used as an active layer in an OLED architecture. A combination of molecular dynamics and experimental characterization techniques reveals a stronger binding mechanism for PF8 compared to PF2/6 with FF-MNS. Biodegradability tests from FF-MNS:PF8 nanocomposite films show more than 80% weight loss in 2 h by enzymatic action compared to PF8 pristine films, which do not degrade. Self-assembled FF-MNS with organic semiconductors open up a new generation of biocompatible and biodegradable materials in organic electronics.
