Advanced Science, EarlyView.How do chemical and physical processes involving multiple phases develop on compact astrophysical objects such as white dwarf stars? Herein, entropy‐driven self‐assembly of rod‐shaped nanoparticles in centrifugal acceleration fields up to 7251 times the gravity of Earth is investigated, where strong acceleration fields accelerated the kinetics of phase

Self-Alignment of Gold Nanorods Within Cellulose Based Liquid Crystals [PDF]
, 2012 In this work, I use cellulose nanocrystals and demonstrate the long-range bulk dispersion and self-alignment of anisotropic metal nanoparticles at well-de ned orientation with respect to the far- eld liquid crystal director.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Submicron droplets, formed by a polyethyleneglycol (PEG)/dextran aqueous two‐phase system·(ATPS), can act as catalytic centers that concentrate DNA and accelerate assembly kinetic in crowded environments. It highlights a cooperative mechanism wherein global crowding from PEG induces an excluded volume effect, while local crowding from dextran provides ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The Tai Ji symbol from China represents the co‐existence of two opposite substances, similar to quantum entanglement. The term Janus comes from ancient Roman religion and mythology. Janus, the god of beginnings, transitions, etc., has two faces, symbolizing duality. Janus cellulose nanomaterials show structural duality.

Flow birefringence of cellulose nanocrystal suspensions in three-dimensional flow fields: revisiting the stress-optic law [PDF]
This study systematically investigates the flow birefringence of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions. The aim is to clarify the importance of the stress component along the camera's optical axis in the stress-optic law (SOL), which describes the relationship between birefringence, the retardation of transmitted polarized light, and the stress field.
