Topical E - Sustainable Engineering. (TE)

#579 - Nanostructured Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Materials: I (TE014)
We seek experimental, theoretical and computational papers investigating the synthesis, characterization, structure and properties of hybrid materials formed via self-assembly of organic and inorganic components. Of particular interest are systems such as polymer-mediated and biopolymer-mediated assemblies of nanoparticles and nanostructured molecules, POSS-polymer hybrid materials, recognitive approaches for nanoparticle self-organization, etc.
