Inorganic-organic hybrid nanocomposites are formed by incorporating inorganic nanoparticles in soft organic polymer matrices. The dynamics of the polymer can be affected due to...

Dioctadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DODAB), is a double chain synthetic cationic lipid that conforms the membrane-like bilayer structure and has found widespread use in several...

The hydrogelation of gold(I) complexes is a fascinating albeit still underdeveloped area of soft matter chemistry, with feasible high-technology applications based on the unique...

Water is the source of life, but the effects of hydration water on the dynamics and function of biological and bio-compatible macromolecules are still full of debates. Chen et...

A cell membrane can contain hundreds of different lipid molecules, but our understanding of the dynamics of cell membranes is very limited. As a result of a collaboration...

Hybrid hyaluronic acid (HA)/poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) [p(NiPAAm)] hydrogels undergo a volume phase transition as a function of temperature. Their swelling state depends also...

At room temperature the ternary stannide CeRuSn crystallizes with a super structure of the monoclinic CeCoAl-type structure. Charge ordering produces a doubling of the unit cell...

We request 4 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus to follow the structural changes of Me-ND4 11BD4 as a function of temperature. The high resolution of HRPD will allow us to...

The proposed experiment addresses the dynamics of surfactants in amphiphile/water systems during the topological transition, with a focus on the membrane with non-lamellae...
