Probing bulk heterojunction (BHJ) thin films with graded morphologies using SANS
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
Structure of Multicomponent Gelators: Effect of Dynamic Covalent Chemistry
Supramolecular gels form via the self-assembly of low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) into complex, hierarchical structures. Here we propose a SANS study of our multicomponent... -
Structure of hyaluronic acid solutions from dilute to concentrated regime
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a biopolymer naturally occurring in many biological systems, including the human body with vital roles in the eye, skin and joints due to its unique... -
A melanin-inspired pro-oxidant system for dopa(mine) polymerization: implicat...
Melanins are the major determinants of pigmentation of skin, hair and eyes in humans. These pigments originate from the tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of tyrosine, leading to... -
Unlocking the Lyotropic Liquid Crystal Phases of Novel Photosurfactants
Photosurfactants (PS) demonstrate the combined ability to change their shape upon irradiation with light and self-organise into polymolecular assemblies. However, the phase... -
Inner structure of nanoparticles for agricultural applications
The development of new nanomaterials for agricultural and environmental applications is a topical field. To control loading of the bioactive agents and their subsequent release,... -
Metallomicroemulsions - a new class of supramolecularly organised metal ions
Incorporation of d- or f-block metals into ligand systems that renders a metal complex surface active or drives its partitioning into surfactant phases enables the localisation...
