In a previous study, the early stages of self-assembly in nanophase materials were explored
by coupling a kinetic mean-field analysis with a lattice-based stochastic theory [JJ Kozak et …

We study the early stages of self-assembly of elementary building blocks of nanophase
materials, considering explicitly their structure and the symmetry and the dimensionality of …

The early stages of self-assembly of the elementary building blocks of nanophase materials
are studied. The relative roles of entropic and energetic factors in determining the relative …

We have only rules of thumb with which to predict how a material will crystallize, chief
among which is Ostwald's rule of stages. It states that the first phase to appear upon …

Nanoscale self-assembly is naturally subject to impediments at the nanoscale. The recently
developed ability to follow processes at the molecular level forces us to resolve older …

This review describes some important physical characteristics of the pathways (ie,
dynamical processes) by which molecular, nanoscale, and micrometer-scale self-assembly …

Protein aggregation is of great importance in biology, eg, in amyloid fibrillation. The
aggregation processes that occur at the cellular scale must be highly stochastic in nature …

From an interplay of high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging and
density functional theory (DFT) calculations we reveal how a molecular conformational …

Surface assembly is often decomposed into two classes: diffusion and reaction limited
processes. The transition between the two cases is complex because the dynamics are so …
