layered liquids

Layered liquids arrange nanoparticles into useful configurations

Medicine & Technology Researchers have created a new "oil and vinegar" approach to forming nanoparticle structures. In this conceptual model, green and blue elements repel one another. Not only does this create a boundary layer where particles tend to congregate, researchers can attach molecules to individual nanoparticles to make them more or less repulsed by an individual layer.
