Instigating effective neural regeneration in the injured adult central nervous system (CNS: brain and spinal cord) following injury remains a distant and challenging goal. After CNS injury, the formation of cystic cavities results in substantial tissue defects and a growth inhibitory injury gap that restricts the potential for any nerve regeneration. This injury gap is not only biochemically inhibitory but also lacks the necessary cues and directional environment with which to replicate key processes observed during CNS development i.e. axon pathfinding as well as the formation of long linear axonal tracts at later stages of development. Recent work involving the incorporation of conducting polymers into tissue engineering biomaterial structures has demonstrated some promise in using electrical stimulation to control the behaviour of neurons and their processes. In addition to the scientific challenges presented here, a tissue engineering approach is hampered by classical fabrication problems of balancing efficacious and cost effective fabrication approaches with the need for the ease of fabrication and biomaterial sophistication. This can be overcome with unique self-assembly techniques. In the present study, biomaterials incorporating aligned arrays of conducting polymers were fabricated using the using self-assembly and capillary force lithography (CFL). Initial work investigated the generation of nanowires from a liquid matrix with a magnetic field culminated in the fabrication of conducting magnetic nanowires which could be assembled into nanowire arrays. CFL was then used to fabricate a platform consisting of aligned patterns of conducting multifunctional nanoparticles. This platform demonstrated no biocompatibility complications while its functionality was demonstrated by the electrical stimulation of cultured neurons. The results show that fabricating such materials using unconventional techniques is indeed feasible to produce novel biomaterials for implantation within the injured CNS. In doing so, it may prove possible to promote and guide regenerating axons through tissue defects, leading to better functional and morphological outcomes.

This book comprehensively reviews the incorporation of different types of carbon-based nanomaterials for application in targeted and controlled drug delivery systems. Carbon-based nanomaterials play a vital role as vectors and scaffolds during drug delivery owing to their ultra-small size, non-toxicity, and high water solubility. The chapters in this book present the use of different carbon-based nanomaterials (such as graphene, carbon quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, and carbon nanofibers) into polymeric and polysaccharide-based matrices for the designing of effective drug delivery vehicles which demonstrate superior performance compared to traditional drug delivery systems. In particular, it demonstrates the incorporation of carbon-based nanomaterials into supramolecular drug delivery systems leading to improved drug delivery properties. This book aims to be a reference for researchers and scientists interested in new nanomaterials for drug delivery applications.

Conducting Polymers with Micro or Nanometer Structure describes a topic discovered by three winners of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2000: Alan J. Heeger, University of California at Santa Barbara, Alan G. MacDiarmid at the University of Pennsylvania, and Hideki Shirakawa at the University of Tsukuba. Since then, the unique properties of conducting polymers have led to promising applications in functional materials and technologies. The book first briefly summarizes the main concepts of conducting polymers before introducing micro/nanostructured conducting polymers dealing with their synthesis, structural characterizations, formation mechanisms, physical and chemical properties, and potential applications in nanomaterials and nanotechnology. The book is intended for researchers in the related fields of chemistry, physics, materials, nanomaterials and nanodevices.

The directed self-assembly (DSA) method of patterning for microelectronics uses polymer phase-separation to generate features of less than 20nm, with the positions of self-assembling materials externally guided into the desired pattern. Directed self-assembly of Block Co-polymers for Nano-manufacturing reviews the design, production, applications and future developments needed to facilitate the widescale adoption of this promising technology. Beginning with a solid overview of the physics and chemistry of block copolymer (BCP) materials, Part 1 covers the synthesis of new materials and new processing methods for DSA. Part 2 then goes on to outline the key modelling and characterization principles of DSA, reviewing templates and patterning using topographical and chemically modified surfaces, line edge roughness and dimensional control, x-ray scattering for characterization, and nanoscale driven assembly. Finally, Part 3 discusses application areas and related issues for DSA in nano-manufacturing, including for basic logic circuit design, the inverse DSA problem, design decomposition and the modelling and analysis of large scale, template self-assembly manufacturing techniques. - Authoritative outlining of theoretical principles and modeling techniques to give a thorough introdution to the topic - Discusses a broad range of practical applications for directed self-assembly in nano-manufacturing - Highlights the importance of this technology to both the present and future of nano-manufacturing by exploring its potential use in a range of fields

The use of spontaneous self-assembly, as a lithographic tool and as an external field-free means to construct well-ordered and intriguing patterns, has received much attention due to its ease of producing complex, large-scale structures with small feature sizes. An extremely simple route to highly-ordered, complex structures is the evaporative self-assembly of nonvolatile solutes (e.g., polymers, nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and DNA) from a sessile droplet on a solid substrate. To date, a few studies have elegantly demonstrated that self-organized nanoscale, microscale, and hierarchically structured patterns have been readily obtained from sophisticated control of droplet evaporation. These include convective assembly in evaporating menisci, the alignment of nanomaterials by programmed dip coating and controlled anisotrophic wetting/dewetting processes, facile microstructuring of functional polymers by the “Breath Figure” method, controlled evaporative self-assembly in confined geometries, etc.This book is unique in this regard in providing a wide spectrum of recent experimental and theoretical advances in evaporative self-assembly techniques. The ability to engineer an evaporative self-assembly process that yields a broad range of complex, well-ordered and intriguing structures with small feature sizes composed of polymers of nanocrystals of different size and shapes as well as DNA over large areas offers tremendous potential for applications in electronics, optoelectronics, photonics, sensors, information processing and data storage devices, nanotechnology, high-throughput drug discovery, chemical detection, combinatorical chemistry, and biotechnology.
