Abstract:
AbstractThe physical properties that make “functional” materials worthy of their moniker frequently arise because of a phase transition that establishes a new kind of order as the material is cooled from a parent state. Such ordered states include ferroelectrics, ferromagnets, and structurally ordered martensites; because these states all break an orientational symmetry, and it is rare that one can produce the conditions for single domain crystallinity, the observed configuration is generally heterogeneous. However, the conditions under which domain structures form are highly constrained, especially by elastic interactions within a solid; consequently, the observed structures are far from fully random, even if disorder is present. Often the structure of the heterogeneity is important to the function, as in shape-memory alloys. Increasingly, we are surprised to discover new phases inside solids that are themselves a heterogeneous modulation of their parents.

Abstract:
The exploitation of nanoscale size effects to create new nanostructured materials necessitates the development of an understanding of relationships between molecular structure, physical properties and material processing at the nanoscale. Numerous metrologies capable of thermal, mechanical, and electrical characterization at the nanoscale have been demonstrated over the past two decades. However, the ability to perform nanoscale molecular/chemical structure characterization has only been recently demonstrated with the advent of atomic-force-microscopy-based infrared spectroscopy (AFM-IR) and related techniques. Therefore, we have combined measurements of chemical structures with AFM-IR and of mechanical properties with contact resonance AFM (CR-AFM) to investigate the fabrication of 20–500 nm wide fin structures in a nanoporous organosilicate material. We show that by combining these two techniques, one can clearly observe variations of chemical structure and mechanical properties that correlate with the fabrication process and the feature size of the organosilicate fins. Specifically, we have observed an inverse correlation between the concentration of terminal organic groups and the stiffness of nanopatterned organosilicate fins. The selective removal of the organic component during etching results in a stiffness increase and reinsertion via chemical silylation results in a stiffness decrease. Examination of this effect as a function of fin width indicates that the loss of terminal organic groups and stiffness increase occur primarily at the exposed surfaces of the fins over a length scale of 10–20 nm. While the observed structure–property relationships are specific to organosilicates, we believe the combined demonstration of AFM-IR with CR-AFM should pave the way for a similar nanoscale characterization of other materials where the understanding of such relationships is essential.

Abstract:
Although various synthetic methodologies including organic synthesis, polymer chemistry, and materials science are the main contributors to the production of functional materials, the importance of regulation of nanoscale structures for better performance has become clear with recent science and technology developments. Therefore, a new research paradigm to produce functional material systems from nanoscale units has to be created as an advancement of nanoscale science. This task is assigned to an emerging concept, nanoarchitectonics, which aims to produce functional materials and functional structures from nanoscale unit components. This can be done through combining nanotechnology with the other research fields such as organic chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, materials science, and bio-related science. In this review article, the basic-level of nanoarchitectonics is first presented with atom/molecular-level structure formations and conversions from molecular units to functional materials. Then, two typical application-oriented nanoarchitectonics efforts in energy-oriented applications and bio-related applications are discussed. Finally, future directions of the molecular and materials nanoarchitectonics concepts for advancement of functional nanomaterials are briefly discussed.

Abstract:
One of the dominant trends in current research in materials science and related fields is the fabrication, characterization, and application of materials and device structures whose characteristic feature sizes are at or near the nanometer scale. Achieving an understanding of—and ultimately control over—the properties and behavior of a wide range of materials at the nanometer scale has therefore become a major theme in materials research. As our ability to synthesize materials and fabricate structures in this size regime improves, effective characterization of materials at the nanometer scale will continue to increase in importance.Central to this activity are the development and application of effective experimental techniques for performing characterization of structural, electronic, magnetic, optical, and other properties of materials with nanometer-scale spatial resolution. Two classes of experimental methods have proven to be particularly effective: scanning-probe techniques and electron microscopy. In this issue of MRS Bulletin, we have included eight articles that illustrate the elucidation of various aspects of nanometer-scale material properties using advanced scanningprobe or electron-microscopy techniques. Because the range of both experimental techniques and applications is extremely broad—and rapidly increasing—our intent is to provide several examples rather than a comprehensive treatment of this extremely active and rapidly growing field of research.

Abstract:
The formation of nanocrystalline structures in bulk metal materials is of great significance for both investigating the structural features of nanocrystalline materials and enhancing the value of bulk metal materials in engineering applications. Herein, we report a nanocrystalline structure formed by lattice transformation in a three-dimensional bulk metal material. We characterized its phase composition, three-dimensional features, and boundary structure. This nanocrystalline structure had microscale length and height and nanoscale width, which gave it a “nanoplate” structure in three-dimensional space. We observed edge dislocations in the interior of the nanocrystalline structure. A unique transitional boundary that contributed to maintaining its nanoscale size was found at the border between the parent phase and the nanocrystalline structure.

Abstract:
Abstract Biomimetic designs based on micro/nanoscale manipulation and scalable fabrication are expected to develop new-style strong, tough structural materials. Although the mimicking of nacre-like ‘brick-and-mortar’ structure is well studied, many highly ordered natural architectures comprising 1D micro/nanoscale building blocks still elude imitation owing to the scarcity of efficient manipulation techniques for micro/nanostructural control in practical bulk counterparts. Herein, inspired by natural twisted plywood structures with fascinating damage tolerance, biomimetic bulk materials that closely resemble natural hierarchical structures and toughening mechanisms are successfully fabricated through a programmed and scalable bottom-up assembly strategy. By accurately engineering the arrangement of 1D mineral micro/nanofibers in biopolymer matrix on the multiscale, the resultant composites display optimal mechanical performance, superior to many natural, biomimetic and engineering materials. The design strategy allows for precise micro/nanostructural control at the macroscopic 3D level and can be easily extended to other materials systems, opening up an avenue for many more micro/nanofiber-based biomimetic designs.

Interfaces are ubiquitous in nature. From solidification fronts to the surfaces of biological cells, interfacial properties determine the interactions between a solid and a liquid. Interfaces, specifically liquid-solid interfaces, play important roles in many fields of science. In the field of biology, interfaces are fundamental in determining cell-cell interactions, protein folding behavior and assembly, and ligand binding. In chemistry, heterogeneous catalysts greatly increase reaction rates of reactions occurring at the interface. In materials science, crystallization and the resulting crystal habit are determined by interfacial properties, and interfaces affect diffusion through polycrystalline materials. In nanotechnology, much work on self-assembly, molecular recognition, catalysis, electrochemistry and numerous other applications depends on the properties of interfaces. The structure and properties of interfaces have been studied experimentally using a variety of techniques including various forms of microscopy, wetting measurements, and scattering techniques. Conventionally, the typical interface considered was highly homogeneous and exhibited a uniform composition and roughness. In contrast, many of the interfaces encountered in biological or nanotechnological systems have surfaces with a greater degree of complexity. While the surface may be compositionally homogeneous over a large area, these surfaces are structured and have a complex surface topology. On a mixed interface, several different chemical groups may be present on the surface, and the chemical composition can vary on a sub-nanometer length scale. Structured systems are inherently difficult to experimentally measure. Most techniques available to characterize interfaces average properties over the entire surface and are not sensitive to nanoscale variations. Furthermore, many of these techniques are incapable of distinguishing global, surface-dependent properties from artifactual influences. Many surface characterization techniques require a large, flat, smooth surface. Preparation of mixed interfaces is an experimental challenge as well as many mixed interfaces with nanoscale structure are present on objects that are themselves nanoscale, such as proteins. Several technological hurdles exist that limit the ability to produce nanoscale mixed interfaces large enough for conventional measurements. In this thesis, the effect of surface structure on wetting behavior was investigated. Interfaces can be characterized by the energy required to form them, a quantity called interfacial energy. Models have been developed to describe the interfacial energy of mixed interfaces for a wide range of surfaces. These models only account for the composition of the surface. The wetting behavior of mixed surfaces has also been related to artifact-dependent wetting effects (namely the effect of a boundary or asperity). No attempt has been made to incorporate surface structure into a global expression of interfacial energy. This thesis will study how the structure of an interface determines the resulting interfacial energy. Surfaces prepared with chemical domains of different length scales demonstrate and interfacial energy trend with significant deviation from the current best model. Specifically, the observed trend is non-linear, unlike the conventional model, and furthermore in some cases, is non-monotonic. These deviations are shown to stem from the surfaces' intrinsic structure and are not an artifact of the measurement process or surface defects. The deviations from the predicted trend are explained by the molecular scale structure of the solvent. The two proposed mechanisms, cavitation and confinement, arise when surface features are smaller than a solvent-dependent length. With cavitation, nonwetting surface features below a size threshold are more wetting than would be expected. With confinement, wetting patches become less wetting as their dimensions are decreased. Molecular dynamics simulations support the proposed mechanisms. Additional experimental results provide further experimental evidence of the proposed molecular-scale wetting phenomena.

Abstract:

The nematic phases of liquid crystals have been the most thoroughly investigated since the founding of the liquid crystal field in the early 1900’s. The resulting technologies, most notably the liquid crystal display, have changed our world and spawned an entire industry. Consequently, the recent identification of a new type of nematic – the twist-bend nematic – was met with as much surprise as excitement, as it melds the fluid properties and environmental responsiveness of conventional nematics with the intrinsic polarization and complex ordering of bent-core liquid crystals. I summarize the history of the twist-bend nematic phase, charting the development of our understanding from its first identification to the present day. Furthermore, I enumerate and highlight my own efforts in the field to characterize the behavior and nanoscale organization of the twist-bend phase.

Chapter 1. Aqueous self-assembly of prodrug macromonomers. A series of highly tunable micelles for drug delivery were made from norbornene based poly(ethylene glycol) macromonomers with covalently linked drugs. A total of five macromonomers were made using three different drugs (telmisartan, paclitaxel, and SN-38) and three different drug loadings. Combinations of these macromonomers were then allowed to self assemble into micellar aggregates. The size, stability, and shape of these micellar aggregates were controlled with the highly versatile structure. Chapter 2. Post micellization modification of norbornene-containing prodrug macromonomers. Highly tunable micelles for drug delivery were functionalized after their selfassembly. Post-micellization inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions of norbornenes and tetrazines were used to signal changes in micelle size and stability through the addition of either hydrophilic or hydrophobic tetrazines.
Thiol-ene additions reactions were used to increase micelle size and form chemically crosslinked nanoparticles. These modifications of norbornene-containing prodrug macromonomer assemblies illustrate their versatility. Chapter 3. Synthesis of polymers by iterative exponential growth. A scalable synthetic route that enables absolute control over polymer sequence and structure has remained a key challenge in polymer chemistry. Here, we report an iterative exponential growth plus side-chain functionalization (IEG+) strategy for the production of macromolecules with defined sequence, length, and stereoconfiguration. Each IEG+ cycle begins with the azide opening of an enantiopure epoxide, followed by side chain functionalization, alkyne deprotection, and copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). These cycles have been conducted to form unimolecular macromolecules with molar masses of over 6,000 g/mol.
Subsequent modifications to IEG+ allow for the functionalization of monomers prior to the IEG+ cycle, expanding the library of compatible side chain chemistries. Chapter 4. Introduction to elastomer toughening strategies. Silicone elastomers are ubiquitous. Here, silicone elastomers are discussed in terms of network structure, the impact of network structure upon physical properties, and modifications of network structure in order to achieve desired physical properties. Fillers, the standard toughening strategy, are discussed in conjunction with entanglement density. Focus is placed on the impact of entanglement density on material properties. Topological networks are discussed and noted for their stress dissipative properties. Chapter 5. Topology modification of polydimethylsiloxane elastomers through loop formation. Topological networks are well known for their stress dissipation through the pulley effect leading to soft, extensible materials.
Combining these properties with a traditionally crosslinked network to produce a hybrid material allows for enhanced extensibility without a loss in modulus. Here, such hybrid networks were made with poly(dimethyl siloxane) polymers of a range of molecular weights. Side-loop polymer brushes were synthesized and then crosslinked to create hybrid networks with the statistical formation of topological bonds. These materials were characterized through tensile testing. Elastomers formed with the same molecular weight polymer in both side-loops and network formation did not show mechanical properties that depended upon the fraction of networks used for brush formation. Elastomers made with long polymers in brush formation and shorter polymers for network formation resulted in highly extensible systems without significant loss in modulus.

Abstract:
"Recently, hydrogel have found to be promising biomaterials since their porous structure and hydrophilicity enables them to absorb a large amount of water. In this study the role of water on the mechanical properties of hydrogel are studied using ab-initio molecular dynamics (MD) and coarse-grained simulations. Condensed-Phased Optimized Molecular Potential (COMPASS) and MARTINI force fields are used in the all-atom atomistic models and coarse-grained simulations, respectively. The crosslinking process is modeled using a novel approach by cyclic NPT and NVT simulations starting from a high temperature, cooling down to a lower temperature to model the curing process. Radial distribution functions for different water contents (20%, 40%, 60% and 80%) have shown the crosslinks atoms are more hydrophilic than the other atoms. Diffusion coefficients are quantified in different water contents and the effect of crosslinking density on the water diffusion is studied. Elasticity parameters are computed by constant strain energy minimization in mechanical deformation simulations. It is shown that an increase in the water content results in a decrease in the elastic. Finally, continuum hyper elastic model of contact lens is studied for three different loading scenarios using Finite Element Model. "

Abstract:
Designing novel nanostructures which exploit the self-assembly capabilities of biomolecules yields a promising approach to control matter at the nanoscale. Here, the homochiral molecular self-assemblies of the methionine and tyrosine amino acids on the monocrystalline Ag(111) and Cu(111) surfaces are characterized by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS), helium atom scattering (HAS), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). On Ag(111), methionine self-assembles into supramolecular chains following the <110> substrate axis, forming regular nanogratings with tunable periodicity. Within the nanowires, a zwitterionic dimerization scheme is revealed. STS shows that the biomolecular nanostructures act as tunable one-dimensional quantum resonators for the surface state electrons. Zero-dimensional electronic confinement is achieved by positioning single iron atoms in the molecular trenches. This shows a novel approach to control the dimensionality of surface state electrons. The nanogratings were exploited to steer the spontaneous one-dimensional ordering of cobalt and iron atoms. For T > 15 K, the metal species self-align into homogeneously distributed chains in between the biomolecular trenches with ~25 Å interatomic distace. For Co, the dynamics of the self-alignment was monitored, revealing a reduced mobility in comparison with isolated Co atoms on bare Ag(111). On Cu(111), the self-assembly of methionine is influenced by the substrate reactivity and its temperature during molecular deposition. For T < 273 K, the biomolecules assemble in anisotropic extended clusters oriented with a -10° rotation off the <110> substrate orientations, whereas above 283 K a regularly ordered 1D phase arises with a +10° rotation off these high-symmetry axis. XPS reveals a structural transformation triggered by a thermally activated deprotonation of the zwitterionic ammonium group. On Ag(111), tyrosine self-assembles above a critical temperature into linear structures primarily following the substrate crystalline symmetry. A zwitterionic non-covalent molecular dimerization is demonstrated, NEXAFS data providing evidence of a non-flat adsorption of the phenyl ring. This recalls the geometrical pattern of methionine on Ag(111) and supports a universal self-assembling scheme for amino acids on close-packed noble metal surfaces, the different mesoscopic ordering being determined by the side chain reactivity.

From the fabrication of fine chemicals, to the increasing attainability of a non-petrochemical based energy infrastructure, catalysts play an important role in meeting the increasing energy and consumable demands of today without compromising the global health of tomorrow. Development of these catalysts relies on the fundamental understanding of the effects individual catalyst properties have on catalytic function. Unfortunately, control, and therefore deconvolution of individual parameter effects, can be quite challenging. Due to the nanoscale formfactor and wide range of available surface chemistries, biological catalyst fabrication affords one solution to this challenge. To this end, this work details the processing of M13 bacteriophage as a synthetic toolbox to modulate key catalyst parameters to elucidate the relationship between catalyst structure and performance. With respect to electrocatalysis, a biotemplating method for the development of tunable 3D nanofoams is detailed. Viral templates were rationally assembled into a variety of genetically programmable architectures and subsequently templated into a variety of material compositions. Subsequently, this synthetic method was employed to examine the effects of nanostructure on electro-catalytic activity. Next, nanoparticle driven heterogeneous catalysis was targeted. Nanoparticle-protein binding affinities were leveraged to explore the relationship between nanoparticles and their supports to identify a selective, base free alcohol oxidation catalyst. Finally, the surface proteins of the M13 virus were modified to mirror homogeneous copper-ligand chemistries. These viruses displayed binding pocket free copper complexation and catalytic efficacy in addition to recyclability and solvent robustness. Subsequently, the multiple functional handles of the viron were utilized to create catalytic ensembles of varying ratios. Single and dendrimeric TEMPO (4-Carboxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl) were chemically conjugated to the surface of several catalytically active phage clones further tailoring catalytic function. Taken together, these studies provide strong evidence of the utility of biologically fabricated materials for catalytic design.

Full text
Abstract:

Nanomaterial composites hold improvement potential for many materials. Improvements arise through known material behaviors and unique nanoscale effects to improve performance in areas including elastic modulus and damping as well as various processes, and products. Review of research spurred development of a load-stage. The load stage could be used independently, or in conjunction with an AFM to investigate bulk and nanoscale material mechanics.

The effect of MWCNT content on structural damping, elastic modulus, toughness, loss modulus, and glass transition temperature was investigated using the load stage, AMF, and DMA. Initial investigation showed elastic modulus increased 23% with 1wt.% MWCNT versus pure epoxy and in-situ imaging observed micro/nanoscale deformation.

Dynamic capabilities of the load stage were investigated as a method to achieve higher stress than available through DMA. The system showed energy dissipation across all reinforce levels, with ~480% peak for the 1wt.% MWCNT material vs. the neat epoxy at 1Hz.
