| Popis: | Self-assembly is a process where particles aggregate together into well-defined structures, leading to the formation of hierarchical structures and nanostructures with varied morphologies. Various non-covalent interactions, which include H-bonding, electrostatic, van der Waals and hydrophobic interactions, are responsible for the formation of assembled structures. Other factors such as the nature of the solvent, temperature and pressure also affect the nature of the assembly. These assemblies lead to coupling effect, which results in changes in the physical properties. The assembled structures have found potential applications in the area of catalysis including photocatalysis and electrocatalysis, Li-ion batteries, sensing, biological applications. This review article focuses on giving a brief glimpse of the self-assembled structures, various forces of interactions leading to self-assembly, their effect on physical properties and applications. |
