TiO2 nanotubes constitute very promising nanomaterials for water decontamination by the
removal of cations. We combined a range of experimental techniques from structural …

Charged colloidal dispersions make up the basis of a broad range of industrial and
commercial products, from paints to coatings and additives in cosmetics. During drying, an …

Ionic microgel particles, when dispersed in a solvent, swell to equilibrium sizes that are
governed by a balance between electrostatic and elastic forces. Tuning of particle size by …

The authors demonstrate how the size and structure of the cavity of hollow charged
microgels may be controlled by varying pH and ionic strength. Hollow charged microgels …

Ionic microcapsules are hollow shells of hydrogel, typically 10–1000 nm in radius,
composed of cross-linked polymer networks that become charged and swollen in a good …

Recent advances have been made in coupling microfluidic chips with X-ray equipment,
enabling structural analysis of samples directly in microfluidic devices. This important step …

We investigate structural and thermodynamic properties of aqueous dispersions of ionic
microgels—soft colloidal gel particles that exhibit unusual phase behavior. Starting from a …

We first report an original setup that enables continuous measurements of stresses induced
by the drying of confined drops of complex fluids. This setup is mainly based on a precision …

We show, using a model coupling mass transport and liquid theory calculations for a charge-
stabilized colloidal dispersion, that diffusion significantly limits measurement times of its …

Hypothesis: Building competitive color conversion pixels for microdisplays made of
semiconductor nanocrystals requires reaching a deposition thickness high enough to …
