pH-modulated self-assembly of colloidal nanoparticles in a dual-droplet inkjet printing process.

Hypothesis: Interfacial self-assembly has been demonstrated as a powerful driving mechanism for creating various nanostructured assemblies. In this work, we employed a dual-droplet printing process and interfacial self-assembly mechanism to produce deposits with controlled assembly structures of colloidal nanoparticles. We hypothesize that pH modulation of the droplet will influence the interfacial self-assembly through the multibody interactions, e.
