Colloidal chemistry with patchy silica nanoparticles

Colloidal chemistry with patchy silica nanoparticles

We report a new route to synthesize clusters, or so-called colloidal molecules (CMs), which mimic the symmetry of molecular structures made of one central atom. We couple site-specifically functionalized patchy nanoparticles, i.e., valence-endowed colloidal atoms (CAs), with complementary nanosphere...
