RESUMO

The free electrons inside precious metals such as Au vibrate when the surface of the metal is irradiated with an electromagnetic wave of an appropriate frequency. This oscillation is referred to as surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and the resonance frequency varies with permittivity of the medium around the metal. SPR sensors are widely applied in the fields of bioscience and pharmaceutical sciences, including biosensing for drug discovery, biomarker screening, virus detection, and testing for food safety. Here, we fabricated a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) SPR sensor by constructing two-dimensional (2D) regular array of Au colloidal particles (2D colloidal crystals) on an insulator layer over a thin Au film coated on a glass substrate surface. The 2D crystals were fabricated by electrostatically adsorbing negatively charged three-dimensional crystals onto a positively charged thin insulator formed on Au film. The plasmon peaks/dips from the MIM structure were measured in aqueous solutions of ethylene glycol (EG) at various concentrations. Multiple plasmon peaks/dips were observed due to the localized SPR (LSPR) of the Au particles and the Fano resonance between the Au particles and thin film. The plasmon peaks/dips shifted to higher wavelengths on increasing EG concentrations due to an increase in the refractive index of the media. The observed peak/dip shift was approximately twice that of LSPR from an isolated Au particle. We expect the present MIM substrate will be useful as a highly sensitive sensor in the pharmaceutical field.

RESUMO

We examined the application of recrystallization and zone-melting crystallization methods, which have been used widely to fabricate large, high-purity crystals of atomic and molecular systems, to charged colloidal crystals. Our samples were aqueous dispersions of colloidal silica (with particle diameters of d = 108 or 121 nm and particle volume fractions of ϕ = 0.035-0.05) containing the weak base pyridine. The samples crystallized upon heating because of increases in the particle charge numbers, and they melted reversibly on cooling. During the recrystallization experiments, the polycrystalline colloids were partially melted in a Peltier cooling device and then were crystallized by stopping the cooling and allowing the system to return to ambient temperature. The zone-melting crystallization was carried out by melting a narrow zone (millimeter-sized in width) of the polycrystalline colloid samples and then moving the sample slowly over a cooling device to recrystallize the molten region. Using both methods, we fabricated a few centimeter-sized crystals, starting from millimeter-sized original polycrystals when the crystallization rates were sufficiently slow (33 µm/s). Furthermore, the optical quality of the colloidal crystals, such as the half-band widths of the diffraction peaks, was significantly improved. These methods were also useful for refining. Small amounts of impurity particles (fluorescent polystyrene particles, d = 333 nm, ϕ = 5 × 10(-5)), added to the colloidal crystals, were excluded from the crystals when the crystallization rates were sufficiently slow (∼0.1 µm/s). We expect that the present findings will be useful for fabricating large, high-purity colloidal crystals.

RESUMO

Crystal structures and dynamic rearrangements of one-dimensional coordination polymers with 4,4'-dipyridylsulfide (dps) have been studied. Reaction of Ni(NO(3))(2)·6H(2)O with dps in EtOH yielded [Ni(dps)(2)(NO(3))(2)] ·EtOH (1), which had channels filled with guest EtOH molecules among the four Ni(dps)(2) chains. This coordination polymer reversibly transformed the channel structure responding to temperature variations. Immersion of 1 in m-xylene released guest EtOH molecules to yield a guest-free coordination polymer [Ni(dps)(2)(NO(3))(2)] (2a), which was also obtained by treatment of Ni(NO(3))(2)·6H(2)O with dps in MeOH. On the other hand, removal of the guest molecules from 1 upon heating at 130 °C under reduced pressure produced a guest-free coordination polymer [Ni(dps)(2)(NO(3))(2)] (2b). Although the 2a and 2b guest-free coordination polymers have the same formula, they showed differences in the assembled structures of the one-dimensional chains. Exposure of 2b to EtOH vapor reproduced 1, while 2a did not convert to 1 in a similar reaction. Reaction of Ni(NO(3))(2)·6H(2)O with dps in acetone provided [Ni(dps)(NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)] ·Me(2)CO (4) with no channel structure. When MeOH or acetone was used as a reaction solvent, the [Ni(dps)(2)(NO(3))(2)] · (guest molecule) type coordination polymer, which was observed in 1, was not formed. Nevertheless, the reaction of Ni(NO(3))(2)·6H(2)O with dps in MeOH/acetone mixed solution produced [Ni(dps)(2)(NO(3))(2)]·0.5(MeOH·acetone) (5), which has an isostructural Ni-dps framework to 1.

RESUMO

We report the fabrication of large and high-quality charged colloidal crystals that are incorporated in a polymer hydrogel matrix. The colloidal crystals are prepared by the thermally induced unidirectional crystallization of colloidal silica in coexistence with pyridine, whose dissociation degree increases with temperature. Their crystal structures are immobilized in the polymer hydrogel matrix by photoinduced polymerizations. The crystals are large sized (maximum dimensions: 1 x 10 x approximately 30 mm), and their lattice planes are well oriented and parallel to the gel surface. Furthermore, they have excellent spatial uniformity in the Bragg wavelengths (<0.7% in standard deviation). The present gelled colloidal crystals, which are unique in that they have large sizes as well as good optical uniformity, will be useful as photonic materials.

RESUMO

A single-crystal-like titania nanowire network was successfully synthesized by a surfactant assisted "oriented attachment" mechanism. Highly crystallized titania nanorods have been synthesized by hydrothermal process using block-copolymer F127 with ethylenediamine. It was observed from high resolution TEM image that titanium atoms aligned perfectly in titania anatase structure with no defect. A high light-to-electricity conversion yield (9.3%) was attained by applying these titania nanoscale materials for making an electrode of dye-sensitized solar cells.

RESUMO

Dilute aqueous dispersions of charged colloidal silica (particle volume fraction = approximately 0.03-0.04, particle diameter = 110 nm) exhibit unidirectional crystal growth due to the diffusion of a weak base, pyridine (Py). Similar diffusion-crystallization is enabled by a salt of a weak acid and a strong base, sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3). The resulting crystals consist of columnar (or cubic) crystal grains with a maximum height of a few centimeters and a maximum width of 1 cm. The crystal growth process is attributed to a combination of (i) the diffusion of Py or NaHCO3 accompanied by a charging reaction of the silica particles and (ii) the charge-induced crystallization of the silica colloids. Theoretical growth curves based on the reaction-diffusion model for the case of Py were in good agreement with the observed curves. We also report the immobilization of the resulting large crystals by using a polymer hydrogel matrix.

RESUMO

Reversible construction of a nanoporous framework from a nonporous framework has been found in the zinc(II) coordination polymer with 4,4'-oxybis(benzoate) (oba). [Zn(2)(oba)(2)(dmf)(2)].2DMF (1), which has 1 nm scale channels, transforms to the nonporous coordination polymer [Zn(oba)(H(2)O)] (2) with the loss of the open framework. Compound 2 on treatment with DMF reversibly yields nanoporous compound 1.

RESUMO

A coordination polymer [Zn(pyta)(OH)] (pyta = 4-pyridylthioacetate), was synthesized and structurally characterized; it is constructed by an alternating assembly of two types of homo-chiral helices, [Zn-OH] and [Zn-pyta], in which the sulfide moieties are fastened in the latter columns.
