Electrical double layer interactions in a non-polar liquid measured with a modified surface force apparatus
Surface force measurements have been made between mica surfaces immersed in a non-polar liquid, decane, in the presence of an amphiphilic... -
Static light scattering from fractal aggregates of microgel particles
In this work, we present static light scattering results from clusters formed from mesoscopic gel particles. The resultant I(q) curves show two power... -

The role of premicellar assemblies and micelles upon the hydrolysis of 2-(2-fluorophenoxy)quinoxaline
In the presence of cationic surfactants (C16H33NR3Cl, R=Me, n-Pr, and n-Bu), the rate-surfactant concentration profiles for the hydrolysis of... -
Lecithin organogels as model carriers of pharmaceuticals
Lecithin microemulsion based organogels (MGs) formulated with cellulose derivatives such as hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) and hydroxypropyl... -
Characterisation of colloidal solids
Charged colloidal particles may form fluid, crystalline or glassy phases even at low packing fraction, if the experimentally adjustable repulsion... -
Simulation of Charged Colloids in Solution
Physicochemical properties of solutions of charged colloids are often dominated by the electrostatic interactions present in such systems. A full... -
Controlled Synthesis of High Quality Semiconductor Nanocrystals
Synthesis of high quality semiconductor nanocrystals is discussed in this chapter. Although the focus is on the recent progress in synthesis of... -
Simple Dipolar Fluids as Generic Models for Soft Matter
The physical properties, based on simulation results, of model fluids and solids bearing an electric or magnetic point dipole moment are described.... -
Unconventional Isotope Effects in Cuprate Superconductors
A brief review on unconventional oxygen-isotope (16O/18O) effects (OIE) in cuprate high-temperature superconductors (HTS) is presented. First the... -
Pairing Mechanisms Viewed from Physics and Chemistry
Through inspecting the limitations of BCS theory we give a brief review on the microscopic theories of superconductivity. Three basic pairing models... -
Neutron Scattering Investigations of Charge Inhomogeneities and the Pseudogap State in High-Temperature Superconductors
Neutron spectroscopy applied to the study of rare-earth based high-temperature superconducting materials provides detailed information on the local... -
Supramolecular Organization of Foldable Phenylene Ethynylene Oligomers
This review summarizes the supramolecular organization of foldable phenylene ethynylene (PE) oligomers and polymers. m-Phenylene ethynylenes (mPEs)... -
Applications of Evolutionary Computation in Structure Determination from Diffraction Data
Evolutionary algorithms are finding increasing use in the study of a wide range of different types of diffraction data. In this chapter, we review... -
Crystal Engineering Using Multiple Hydrogen Bonds
Crystal engineering is the branch of supramolecular chemistry concerned with the design and synthesis of extended structures with predictable form... -
Dynamic Inhomogeneity, Pairing and Superconductivity in Cuprates
In cuprates there is a significant body of evidence for the existence of electronically driven dynamic inhomogeneity which might arise from the...
