Symmetric shapes and patterns are fascinating and preferred by humans as symmetric
stimuli of any kind are more easily processed by the visual systems than their asymmetric …

Janus nanomaterials composed of two compartments with dissimilar compositions and/or
functionalities have garnered considerable interest over the past several decades owing to …

Janus particles, named after the double-faced Roman god, are compartmentalized colloids
with two sides of different chemistry or polarity. This makes them a unique class of materials …

We present a novel, versatile, and simple solution-based routine to produce soft, nanosized
Janus particles with tunable structural and physical properties at high volume yield. This …

We study the assembly of spherical particles with opposite electric charge on both
hemispheres, in the case that the particle diameter exceeds the electrostatic screening …

Janus particles (JPs) are compartmentalized colloids that possess two sides of different
chemistry or polarity. These particles have moved into the focus of various research groups …

We investigate the self-assembly behavior of Janus particles with different geometries at a
liquid–liquid interface. The Janus particles we focus on are characterized by a phase …

Nonconductive Janus particle swimmers made by coating fluorescent polymer beads with
hemispheres of platinum have been fully characterized using video microscopy to reveal …

The term “smart dust” originally referred to miniature wireless semiconductor devices made
using fabrication techniques derived from the microelectronics industry. These devices …

Nanoparticle sensors have been developed for real-time imaging and dynamic monitoring,
both in live cells and in vivo, of molecular and ionic components, constructs, forces, and …
