Abstract
The in-plane packing of gold (Au), polystyrene (PS), and silica (SiO2) spherical nanoparticle (NP) mixtures at a water-oil interface is investigated in situ by UV-vis reflection spectroscopy. All NPs are functionalized with carboxylic acid such that they strongly interact with amine-functionalized ligands dissolved in an immiscible oil phase at the fluid interface. This interaction markedly increases the binding energy of these nanoparticle surfactants (NPSs). The separation distance between the Au NPSs and Au surface coverage are measured by the maximum plasmonic wavelength (λmax) and integrated intensities as the assemblies saturate for different concentrations of non-plasmonic (PS/SiO2) NPs. As the PS/SiO2 content increases, the time to reach intimate Au NP contact also increases, resulting from their hindered mobility. λmax changes within the first few minutes of adsorption due to weak attractive inter-NP forces. Additionally, a sharper peak in the reflection spectrum at NP saturation reveals tighter Au NP packing for assemblies with intermediate non-plasmonic NP content. Grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements confirm a decrease in Au NP domain size for mixtures with larger non-plasmonic NP content. The results demonstrate a simple means to probe interfacial phase separation behavior using in situ spectroscopy as interfacial structures densify into jammed, phase-separated NP films.

Direct-ink-write cross-linkable bottlebrush block copolymers for on-the-fly control of structural color. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2024; 121:e2313617121.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing capable of controlling and dynamically modulating structures down to the nanoscopic scale remains challenging. By marrying additive manufacturing with self-assembly, we develop a UV (ultra-violet)-assisted direct ink write approach for on-the-fly modulation of structural color by programming the assembly kinetics through photo-cross-linking. We design a photo-cross-linkable bottlebrush block copolymer solution as a printing ink that exhibits vibrant structural color (i.e., photonic properties) due to the nanoscopic lamellar structures formed post extrusion. By dynamically modulating UV-light irradiance during printing, we can program the color of the printed material to access a broad spectrum of visible light with a single ink while also creating color gradients not previously possible. We unveil the mechanism of this approach using a combination of coarse-grained simulations, rheological measurements, and structural characterizations. Central to the assembly mechanism is the matching of the cross-linking timescale with the assembly timescale, which leads to kinetic trapping of the assembly process that evolves structural color from blue to red driven by solvent evaporation. This strategy of integrating cross-linking chemistry and out-of-equilibrium processing opens an avenue for spatiotemporal control of self-assembled nanostructures during additive manufacturing.

Abstract
Surface engineered iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) with catecholic ligands have been investigated as alternative T1 contrast agents. However, complex oxidative chemistry of catechol during IONP ligand exchange causes surface etching, heterogeneous hydrodynamic size distribution, and low colloidal stability because of Fe3+ mediated ligand oxidation. Herein, we report highly stable and compact (∼10 nm) Fe3+ rich ultrasmall IONPs functionalized with a multidentate catechol-based polyethylene glycol polymer ligand through amine-assisted catecholic nanocoating. The IONPs exhibit excellent stability over a broad range of pHs and low nonspecific binding in vitro. We also demonstrate that the resultant NPs have a long circulation time (∼80 min), enabling high resolution T1 magnetic resonance angiography in vivo. These results suggest that the amine assisted catechol-based nanocoating opens a new potential of metal oxide NPs to take a step forward in exquisite bio-application fields.

Abstract
Magnetic-core/gold-shell nanoparticles (MAuNPs) are of interest for enabling rapid and portable detection of trace adulterants in complex media. Gold coating provides biocompatibility and facile functionalization, and a magnetic core affords analyte concentration and controlled deposition onto substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Iron oxide cores were synthesized and coated with gold by reduction of HAuCl4 by NH2OH. MAuNPs were grafted with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and/or functionalized with 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) and examined using a variety of microscopic, spectroscopic, magnetometric, and scattering techniques. For MAuNPs grafted with both PEG and 4-MBA, the order in which they were grafted impacted not only the graft density of the individual ligands, but also the overall graft density. Significant Raman signal enhancement of the model analyte, 4-MBA, was observed. This enhancement demonstrates the functionality of MAuNPs in direct detection of trace contaminants. The magnetic deposition rate of MAuNPs in chloroform and water was explored. The presence of 4-MBA slowed the mass deposition rate, and it was postulated that the rate disparity originated from differing NP-substrate surface interactions. These findings emphasize the importance of ligand choice in reference to the medium, target analyte, and substrate material, as well as functionalization procedure in the design of similar sensing platforms.

Abstract
Achieving ordered arrays of nanoparticles (NPs) with controlled packing symmetry and interparticle spacing is of great importance to design complex metamaterials. Herein, we report softness- and size-dependent self-assembly behavior of polystyrene-grafted Au NPs (Au@PS NPs). We varied the core size of Au NPs from 1.9 to 9.6 nm and the number-average molecular weight (Mn) of thiol-terminated polystyrene from 1.8 to 7.9 kg mol-1. The optimal packing model based on an "effective softness" parameter λeff that accounts for close-packed and semidilute brush regimes could predict the effective radius of Au@PS NPs (within ±9%) for a wide range of PS Mn, grafting density, and Au core size. With increasing λeff, the self-assembled Au@PS NP superlattices undergo a symmetry transition from hexagonal close packed (hcp) to body-centered tetragonal (bct) to body-centered cubic (bcc). This work demonstrates the effective softness model as a simple but robust tool for the design of NP superlattices with precisely controlled interparticle distance and packing symmetry, both of which are critical for the development of sophisticated materials through control of nanoscale structure.
