I had my ear close to her lips.

She whispered, "My son, I missed you so much last night, so, I cried."

Those were the last words my mother left for me.

She was forty-six.

And I am now forty-six.

This is for my mother.

Preface

Nanotechnology is now experiencing a nice expansion toward its full potential. Early promises from scientific discoveries are being actualized in engineering stages, and diverse products are beginning to show up in the marketplace. This is possible because we now have some good methods for the assembly of nanotechnology systems and an improved understanding of how they behave at the nanoscale.

Self-assembly is a key scientific principle behind nanotechnology. Many of the seemingly complex self-assembly systems from different origins are well understood. They can help assemble nanotechnology systems effectively and efficiently, and provide practical tools to control the structures and properties of nanotechnology systems. This marriage of self-assembly and nanotechnology systems is important for the maturation of nanotechnology and promises fruitful outcomes. A main goal of this book is to offer comprehensive coverage of how to use self-assembly systems for the design, characterization, and applications of nanotechnology systems. The four key objectives are:

1. Show how to identify assembly building units.

2. Provide detailed assembly principles for the design of nanotechnology systems.

3. Establish practical assembly methods to focus on when developing nanomaterials, nanostructures, nanoproperties, nanofabricated systems, and nanomechanics.

4. Show how to characterize/model self-assembly and nanotechnology systems.

This book is divided into four parts. The first part shows the assembly building units, and how diverse their origins and structures can be. It also presents how to analyze the building unit structures in a systematic manner. This will be called segmental analysis, which is used as an underlying concept for the discussions throughout the book. The second and third parts show the design and applications of nanotechnology systems, respectively, and how to select proper assembly principles and methods. The last part shows how to select proper characterization techniques and predictive models. This book is structured as follows:

1. Clear questions at the beginning of each chapter help readers stay focused.

2. Each chapter offers an algorithmic diagram for a general overview.

3. Schematics are designed to link the assembly principles with actual systems.

4. Case studies are provided for the in-depth analysis of actual systems.

5. All chapters (except for the final one) provide a collection of examples.

6. All chapters in the second and third parts follow the same format, making it easy to understand different assembly principles and methods.

Those who are studying the disciplines of science and engineering with a general chemistry level of knowledge should not have too much difficulty using this book. Occasional trips to common biology, physics, or materials science textbooks might be necessary. This book will be useful for:

1. Students, researchers, and professionals who want to acquire a general picture of how self-assembly systems are used in nanotechnology systems.

2. College teachers who need a convenient source for teaching and for design of experiments for nanotechnology-related courses.

3. Nanoscientists and nanotechnologists who need a handbook for their daily activities and for publishing the results of their studies.

Acknowledgments

I am deeply grateful to all the reviewers. Their valuable advice greatly helped me shape this book. I can never thank enough professors Kyu Whan Woo at Seoul National University and James F. Rathman at Ohio State University. It was Professor Woo who introduced me the term self-assembly on my first day of graduate school. This word has been imprinted on my mind ever since. With the guidance of Professor Rathman, I widened my view on self-assembly and explored a good deal of nanotechnology. My deep thanks extend to Dr. Oksik Lee at Chemical Abstracts Service. Without her companionship, thoughtfulness, and all the discussions I have had with her over the years, it would have been much more difficult to write this book. As always, my deepest thanks go to my wife, Jee-a, and my son, Jong-hyeok, for their endless support and love. I always miss my parents and my parents-in-law, who live far away.

BUILDING UNITS

Chapter 1

Self-Assembly Systems

My ten-year-old son loves building action figures using LEGO bricks (LEGO, please see References). He has many LEGO products, “which I bought for him, of course.” He first built the action figures that he was supposed to build by following the instructions. Once he built enough number of them in many different forms, he then began to build his own action figures by using the parts from the different boxes. Whenever I am watching him building new forms of action figures, in many cases with new functions, I am amazed by how an “unbiased” child's mind can do such a creative and fun thing. I love watching him doing that, and, of course, enjoy the new action figures so much. What is also amazing is the flexibility of those tiny parts. They are small and simple but at the same time so elegantly and functionally designed. It seems to me that their core structures are composed of just a couple of different basic segments. These basic segments are simple yet diverse, and easy to assemble. One segment from one part perfectly fits with the complementary segments from all other parts even from other types of action figures. By following this simple rule, my son keeps building his own action figures with a high variety and different size scales.

My approach to self-assembly begins with the segmental analysis of self-assembly building units. (The term building block is used roughly ten times more than the term building unit in the literature. But the term building block may bring an unintended implication that it is limited to sizable materials rather than encompassing a wide range of different entities. Thus, the term building unit will be used in this book with the intention that it includes any type of entity that can be assembled into any type of self-assembled system.) It does not totally come from my son's LEGO playing, but it has definitely helped me build up this concept. It is not about making self-assembly analysis more complicated. There is a very simple way to address self-assembly issues that are seemingly widely dispersed. And we can benefit from it, not just in nanotechnology but in other areas of modern technology as well. It may not look like a conventional scientific approach toward natural phenomena. But it is indeed possible to understand self-assembly with a very simple rule.

1.1 Self-Assembly

Figure 1.1 presents a schematic explanation of the self-assembly process based on the concept of force balance. A full description of this concept has been discussed elsewhere (Lee, 2008). For almost all of the self-assembly processes, major interactions between their building units, regardless of the types and sizes, occur through relatively weak intermolecular or colloidal forces. These include hydrogen bond, van der Waals interaction, hydrophobic force, π-π interaction, steric interaction, depletion force, solvation/hydration forces, and so forth. Strong bonds such as covalent bond, coordination bond, or ionic bond are rarely involved with self-assembly processes. These weak intermolecular or colloidal forces can be classified into three distinctive groups whose delicate balance determines the process and outcome of the self-assembly. They are attractive driving force, repulsive opposition force, and directional/functional forces. The attractive driving force acts to bring self-assembly building units together, thus initiating the self-assembly process. Once this attractive process takes place, the repulsive opposition force, which is originated by another segment within the self-assembly building unit, acts to balance the attractive process, which places the building units at a certain critical state. Self-assembly is established at this critical point and self-assembled aggregates begin to appear at this point as well. The third group, directional/functional forces, are the forces that can guide this balancing process between the attractive and repulsive forces. Depending on the nature of the self-assembly system, the directional/functional forces can act as either an attractive force or a repulsive force. In most cases, it is the directional/functional forces that give the self-assembly system (or self-assembled aggregate) unique structural functionalities.

Figure 1.1 The concept of force balance approach for self-assembly.

Self-assembly occurs through the delicate balance between at least any two groups of the forces. For example, it can be between the attractive force and repulsive force, between the attractive force and the directional force that has the capability of the repulsive force, between the repulsive force and the directional forces that have the capability of the attractive force, or between all three groups. But, to become a self-assembly, it always has to fulfill both the “self” aspect and the “assembly” aspect, and at the same time should have the actual outcomes, that is, “self-assembled aggregates.” Therefore, there always has to be the force that gives the “self” aspect to the self-assembly building units and the balance that can ensure both the structural integrity and dynamic flexibility of the self-assembled aggregates. On the other hand, this observation leads us to the justification that, once the conditions (intrinsic ones of the building unit and environmental ones) for this force balance are met between any building units, they will come close (“self” aspect) and form the aggregates (self-assembled aggregates) at a certain point of the process (“assembly” aspect) regardless of their types and sizes.
