Polymers, Nanoparticles and Video GamesDecember 13, 2010
Alex Travesset, Department of Physics and Astronomy
Polymers are long flexible molecules that arrange in a myriad of
fascinating phases and structures not found in the crystals made of
simple atoms. Nanoparticles are small clusters of atoms designed with
unparallel precision and beauty. Combining polymers and nanoparticles
has been recognized as providing enormous potential for the design of
novel materials. Why designing materials combining polymers and
nanoparticles is so difficult? Are there any general strategies? What
implications could this have for our real life? And why Video Games
are mentioned in the title of this talk?
