Assembly, cross-linking and encapsulation using functionalized nanoparticles at liquid interfaces

The assembly of nanoparticles at the interface of immiscible fluids holds promise for the preparation of new materials that benefit from both the physical properties of the nanoparticles and the chemistry associated with the ligands. Shaking nanoparticle solutions in organic solvents with water, res...
