Studies on the adsorption of oppositely charged colloidal particles ultimately resulted in
multilayered polyelectrolyte self-assembly. The inception of layer-by-layer constructed …

The inelastic scattering of light, Raman scattering, presents a very low cross section.
However, the signal can be amplified by several orders of magnitude, leading to the so …

Polymer nanocomposites offer the opportunity to bridge properties of nanomaterials to the
macroscale. In this work, layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly is used to demonstrate …

Here we report the use of counter-propagating second harmonic generation (SHG) to image
the interactions between the local anesthetic tetracaine and a multicomponent planar …

The application of organic thin films as transducer elements in electronic devices has been
widely exploited, with the electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) technique being one of the most …

The detection of trace amounts of pesticides is essential for the quality control of waters,
particularly with their inevitable increasing use with the growing demand for food. In this …

An increase of the reports involving mimetic systems has been observed. Briefly, these
systems use biological phospholipids to exploit specific interactions between membrane …

Highly selective and sensitive modified electrodes have been the focus of many studies in
sensing applications. Gene or enzymatic biosensors are greatly effective in this context, but …

Nanotechnology has emerged as a pivotal tool in biomedical research, particularly in
