Anisotropic particle assemblies: synthesis, assembly, modeling, and applications

This title covers the synthesis, assembly, modelling, and applications of various types of anisotropic particles.

Topics such as chemical synthesis and scalable fabrication of colloidal molecules, molecular mimetic self-assembly, directed assembly under external fields, theoretical and numerical multi-scale modeling, anisotropic materials with novel interfacial properties, and the applications of these topics in renewable energy, intelligent micro-machines, and biomedical fields are discussed in depth.
