KSV NIMA Langmuir-Blodgett systems:
Analyze nanoparticle monolayers at the air/water interface
‒ How do nanoparticles interact with each other or
with other analytes such as proteins, lipids, etc…
‒ Do they assemble, aggregate, cluster, etc…
- Nanoparticle interactions with model lipid monolayers
‒ Drug delivery and encapsulation
‒ Nanotoxicology
‒ Enzyme activity
‒ Controlled and automated nanoparticle deposition on solid substrates
• Form well-organized, mono- or multilayer films
‒ Enable formation of graphene layers on solid substrates
• Graphene is an attractive material for its unique electron transport
properties and for applications that require high layer integrity
‒ Metals and semiconductors
• Metal nanoparticles, metal oxides, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots
‒ Interactions of deposited model lipid monolayers with nanoparticles
- The LB system is used for nanoparticle deposition to make solar panels.
- LB enables very controlled deposition of particles
which improves the efficiency of solar panel energy production.
- In solar panels, many types are formed via a nanoparticle
formation, aggregation, deposition process that has to be
carefully timed to prevent over-aggregation/clumping.
LB enables precise control of deposition.
